Biomimetic Nanoreactors via in situ Synthesis of Atomically-Thin Gold Sheets and Platinum Nanoclusters

McTaggart M., Malardier-Jugroot C., Jugroot M., Malardier-Jugroot C., Royal Military College of Canada, CA

We present the synthesis and activity of broadly stable polymer-metal nanoreactors capable of confinement-enhanced catalysis. Poly(styrene-alt-maleic acid), SMA, is known to self-assemble in water into highly organized supramolecular nanostructures containing confined polar and non-polar reaction [...]

Futurodontics – An Introduction

Borthakur B.J., Mahatma Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Dental Sciences (Govt. of Puducherry Institution), India., IN

Summery: “The best way to predict the future is to create it”. Anonymous Nanofillers used in dental composites give superior nanomechanical & optical properties & reduction in polymerization shrinkage. To understand the nature’s biology is [...]

Bioinspired Miniaturization – Stretching Information from Coherence to Dissipation for Nano-to-Micro Integrated Intelligent Systems

Santoli S., International Nanobiological Testbed Ltd., IT

From previous results attained on the basis of thermodynamics, statistical physics and nanobiology it is shown that Artificial Intelligence (AI) concepts and their hard-wired implementations cannot satisfy the physical conditions for mimicking biological intelligence and [...]
