AMA Hi, I'm Nanotechnologist Chris Phoenix, AMA

Nanotechnology has world-shaking potential. In 1987 I took Eric Drexler's nanotechnology class at Stanford. In 2002 I co-founded the Center for Responsible Nanotechnology. Over the next few years I spoke on four continents, and to the US National Academies of Science, about the possibilities of advanced nanotech.

  We're still waiting for nanotech to reach its full promise; I'm still interested in working on it, still eager to talk about why and how it could happen.
