Setting the foundations for new industries and opportunities: Summary of an international panel report

Abstract

This substantial report on UK nanoscience policy was originally published in full in electronic form only on the RCUK website (http://www.rcuk.ac.uk/documents/nano/settingthefoundations.pdf); it is now available on the EPSRC website as well (http://www.epsrc.ac.uk/SiteCollectionDocuments/Publications/reports/NanoscienceReview2009.pdf). What was essentially the “executive summary” of the report, together with strategic recommendations for research priorities, is now published here so as to enable and encourage wider dissemination and debate on the important policy issues raised.
