Nanotech promises multiple gains to defense sensors: researcher
Article Abstract:
Minute-scale detection involving molecule-sized samples that can produce a readable electronic signal, termed as nanoscale-sensing technology, promises to offer the ability to make potentially life-and-death chemical detections. A device developed by David Janes, deputy director of Purdue University's Institute for Nanoelectronics and Computing (INAC) and his colleagues integrates readily with electronic circuitry thus enabling acute sensitivity coupled with portability.

DOD science cuts surprisingly deep, AAAS says
Article Abstract:
The budget analysts at the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) has described that the Pentagon's proposed cut in its long-term research activities is surprisingly very deep. The proposed fiscal 2006 budget of $10.7 billion for science & technology (S&T) represents a drop of 21 American Association for the Advancement of Science percent from 2005 (S&T) budget of $13.6 billion.
