Nanotechnology sensors raise privacy issues
Abstract:
Christine Peterson: The popular NSF-funded Earth & Sky radio series — “illuminating pathways to a vibrant and sustainable future for over six million people daily” — has been focusing on nanotech for quite a while now. Most recently is an interview looking at the question of nanotechnology-based sensors and privacy.
