MIT’s Gershenfeld: Desktop molecular machines within 20 years
Abstract:
Christine Peterson: The June 2005 Technology Quarterly report in the The Economist includes an update on the work of MIT’s Neil Gershenfeld. There’s a summary of his fab lab project and some projections: “He admits that his far-flung fab labs are not the advanced molecular machines he foresees in the next 20 years on a desktop near you, but just clunky precursors.”
