Nanoscience will have a huge impact on the biological sciences (and thus medicine and agriculture, for example) in the long term, and a significant impact in the short and medium terms, simply by virtue of our growing ability to work on the scale of biological systems.

This is the area where nanotech has been most severely hyped, as a technology that will cure cancer, eliminate infections, enhance our intelligence and make us immortal. It is also the area where the bounds of nanotechnology are most blurred. This is because nature’s technology operates predominantly at the nanoscale. However our knowledge of the chemical structure of DNA and the proteins it cod
