          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) Laboratory will be open to qualified users for imaging the topography of surfaces at the sub-100 micron scale. Undergraduates and graduate students qualify by passing the Atomic Force Microscopy course in alternating D terms; occasionally graduate students can be trained starting in A term. Students typically become competent in AFM techniques in approximately one semester, although it takes about a year of constant work to evolve into a fully independent user. One should not expect research results quickly. Thus for me to train a student requires a solid commitment to the project on the part of that student&#039;s advisor.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>1st Annual Conference</title>
 <link>http://www.nanovip.com/node/4443</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-short-description&quot;&gt;
  &lt;h3 class=&quot;field-label&quot;&gt;Short description&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nanotechnology was incorporated into more than $50 billion in manufactured goods last year, according to Lux Research. By 2014, the market will grow to $2.6 trillion.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-long-description&quot;&gt;
  &lt;h3 class=&quot;field-label&quot;&gt;Long description&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nanotechnology was incorporated into more than $50 billion in manufactured goods last year, according to Lux Research. By 2014, the market will grow to $2.6 trillion. By 2011, over $15 billion in nano-enabled drugs and therapeutics will be sold—up from more than $3 billion in 2006. And industry experts project that nanotechnology will be incorporated into $20 billion worth of consumer food products by 2010.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yet, despite this rapid commercialization, no nano-specific regulation exists anywhere in the world. Most regulatory agencies remain in an information-gathering mode—lacking the legal and scientific tools, information and resources they need to adequately oversee exponential nanotechnology market growth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, for the first time, you’ll get to meet all the top officials from these government departments in one place and learn of their plans for regulating food and drug nanotech products. You’ll hear what’s really happening in Europe and Asia, on Wall Street, in the corridors of major corporations, in the more advanced laboratories, at forward-thinking universities and in the halls of Congress.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And you’ll also get the answers to those questions you’ve been talking to your colleagues about for the last several months:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    * How is FDA going to implement its Nanotechnology Task Force Report?&lt;br /&gt;
    * How is OSHA going to deal with nanotech issues in the workplace?&lt;br /&gt;
    * Is Congress ready to act on nanotechnology if federal regulators don’t?&lt;br /&gt;
    * What first and second generation nanotechnology products are already on the market, and what’s to come?&lt;br /&gt;
    * Do Europe and Asia approach nanotechnology safety and oversight differently&lt;br /&gt;
      than the United States?&lt;br /&gt;
    * When it comes to nanotechnology, should size make a regulatory difference?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who Should Attend&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pharmaceutical firm representatives, nanotech development specialists, venture capitalists, in-house and outside legal counsel, nanotech policy officials.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-registration-and-contact-&quot;&gt;

 <title>1st Annual Conference on Nanotechnology Law,Regulation and Policy</title>
 <link>http://www.nanovip.com/node/5416</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-short-description&quot;&gt;
  &lt;h3 class=&quot;field-label&quot;&gt;Short description&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-long-description&quot;&gt;
  &lt;h3 class=&quot;field-label&quot;&gt;Long description&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Program Description&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nanotechnology was incorporated into more than $50 billion in manufactured goods last year, according to Lux Research. By 2014, the market will grow to $2.6 trillion. By 2011, over $15 billion in nano-enabled drugs and therapeutics will be sold—up from more than $3 billion in 2006. And industry experts project that nanotechnology will be incorporated into $20 billion worth of consumer food products by 2010.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yet, despite this rapid commercialization, no nano-specific regulation exists anywhere in the world. Most regulatory agencies remain in an information-gathering mode—lacking the legal and scientific tools, information and resources they need to adequately oversee exponential nanotechnology market growth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, for the first time, you’ll get to meet all the top officials from these government departments in one place and learn of their plans for regulating food and drug nanotech products. You’ll hear what’s really happening in Europe and Asia, on Wall Street, in the corridors of major corporations, in the more advanced laboratories, at forward-thinking universities and in the halls of Congress.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And you’ll also get the answers to those questions you’ve been talking to your colleagues about for the last several months:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    * How is FDA going to implement its Nanotechnology Task Force Report?&lt;br /&gt;
    * How is OSHA going to deal with nanotech issues in the workplace?&lt;br /&gt;
    * Is Congress ready to act on nanotechnology if federal regulators don’t?&lt;br /&gt;
    * What first and second generation nanotechnology products are already on the market, and what’s to come?&lt;br /&gt;
    * Do Europe and Asia approach nanotechnology safety and oversight differently&lt;br /&gt;
      than the United States?&lt;br /&gt;
    * When it comes to nanotechnology, should size make a regulatory difference?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who Should Attend&lt;br /&gt;
Pharmaceutical firm representatives, nanotech development specialists, venture capitalists, in-house and outside legal counsel, nanotech policy officials.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Registration Fees&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;gt; Standard Rate (Received after Friday, January 25, 2008)&lt;br /&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;PuraMatrix is 3DM&#039;s patented product line of synthetic self-assembling peptide hydrogels invented at MIT. PuraMatrix is the leading commcial synthetic scaffold for 3D cell culture, cancer biology, drug discovery, tissue engineering, bioproduction, and cell therapy research. PuraMatrix is composed of a simple 16 amino acid peptide monomer 1% weight/volume in tissue culture water, which self-assembles in the presence of salt to form ECM-scale nanofibers, that in turn self-assemble into extremely stable, injectable, biocompatible and biodegradable hydrogels. The gels work by coating surfaces or encapsulating cells, allowing for the proper three dimensional (3-D) culture across most cell types, including cell-based assays for neurite outgrowth, angiogenesis, cell migration, cancer invasion, and hepatocyte toxicity. This reproducible integrin-free scaffold can be customized according to the desired microenvironment to closely model the in vivo milieu along with growth factors, cytokines, integrin sequences, and other bioactive molecules.&lt;/p&gt;
