ACS Conference Looks to the Future

The theme for this year’s American Chemical Society national meeting in Salt Lake City is Nanoscience: Challenges for the Future (a topic that many of you know is near and dear to my own heart) and therefore perfect for my debut post on In Futuro, a blog covering the next generation of science. Of course, research presented at the conference also covers a wide range of chemistry and multidisciplinary topics outside nanotechnology that will also affect the future. Here are a few pieces of research that might be important to those of us without a Ph.D.
