U.S. May Be Abandoning Leadership in Science and Innovation

Abstract:
Asian countries are investing significantly in nanotechnology, and may have already surpassed the U.S. in this promising area of research. For example, Small Times reported last year: "Japan's nanotechnology budget for fiscal 2004 rose 3.1 percent to $875 million, according to Japan's Council for Science and Technology Policy. Meanwhile, the two main government ministries responsible for about 90 percent of the country's nanotechnology research programs are both seeing their budgets increased."
