Copenhagen Nano-Science Centre to run major EU research project

Nanotechnology allows scientists to observe atoms and molecules and manipulate them. New materials, improved medicine, high-speed computers, and enhanced environmental protection are just a few of the benefits that can be gained. This new field of science will play a key role in improving the global competitiveness of European industry. The knowledge generated will aid the transformation from a resource-intensive to a knowledge-intensive industry. By creating conditions for innovation and growth, new products and services will be developed.
