(Santa Barbara, Calif.) –– The results of a new U.S.–U.K. study published in this week's issue of the journal Nature Nanotechnology show that ordinary people in both countries hold very positive views of nanotechnologies and what the future of these technologies might bring. Participants in both countries indicated a significantly higher comfort level with energy applications of nanotechnologies than with applications used in health treatments.
