Dr. Richard Appelbaum, professor of sociology at UCSB and member of CNS’s executive committee, recently spoke a forum entitled "Nanotechnology in China: Ambitions and Realities" at the Woodrow Wilson Center's Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies."

With the world’s greatest population and a global leader in research and innovation, China is rapidly catching up to the United States in field of nanotechnology.  Knowing this, a flurry of questions follow: Will China overtake the U.S. in research and development?  Will their investment pay off?  How will the U.S. respond?
