• UC Researchers Explore Nano To Help Unlock Secrets to Central Nervous System Repair
  Enterprising scientists in southern California are exploring how nano-sciences and neuro-sciences might work more closely together to unlock secrets to recovery from central nervous system injuries. The work, which is being done at The University of California San Diego (UCSD)’s Silva Research Group for Cellular Neural Engineering, focuses on using nanotechnologies to study neuropathological processes. The aim is to help neuroscientists better understand the physiology of and develop treatments for disorders such as brain injury, spinal cord injury, degenerative retinal disorders, and Alzheimer’s disease.

• Nanophase Holds Unique Position in Industry by Being Able to Both Create and Manufacture Customized Nanomaterials
  It’s one thing to be able to create new nanomaterials, you also need to be able to reliably manufacture them—Nanophase is successful for just that reason.
  Nanophase Technologies delivers and manufactures nanomaterials solutions to the marketplace. Headquarted in Illinois, Nanophase is one of a handful of publicly traded nanotechnology companies in the U.S. According to Joe Cross, President & CEO, “The real power in Nanophase is being able to deliver an optimal solution to an application. We make and deliver nanomaterials in whatever format the customer needs.” In essence, Nanophase is “selling a solution” by making an intermediate product that can be easily integrated into an existing product or process.
