- Description
- The National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) was established in 2001 to lead federal government research and development (R&D) efforts in nanoscale technologies and has since become one of its most successful government-wide R&D initiatives. In this sixth review of the NNI, the Presidents Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) finds that, as in its 2014 review, more can be done to facilitate meaningful technology transfer of nanotechnology R&D. PCAST recommends that the Subcommittee on Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and Technology (NSET) issue more Grand Challenges to PCAST to help encourage tangible goals and end-products for nanotechnology R&D.
