Starting then, it has published two periodicals. The journal NanoTrends, a journal of nanoscience and technology, is published in online format every two months and printed every six months. It provides for the accelerated publication of research articles related to the nano domain and its applications. The online newsletter NanoSpectacle is published monthly. It summarizes the last months developments related to nano world and covers topics like coming events, new books released, book reviews etc.
The society has launched the distance learning "Nanotechnology Sensitization Program". which provides guidance to its students on various subjects and areas of Nano Science and Technology. It also sponsors workshops and other educational events.
Famous quotes containing the words science and/or technology:
“The great pagan world of which Egypt and Greece were the last living terms ... once had a vast and perhaps perfect science of its own, a science in terms of life. In our era this science crumbled into magic and charlatanry. But even wisdom crumbles.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“One can prove or refute anything at all with words. Soon people will perfect language technology to such an extent that they’ll be proving with mathematical precision that twice two is seven.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
