[tt] advanced nanotechnology - Where is mechanosynthesis? In progress but underfunded.

[Perry E. Metzger]

> [7]IEEE Spectrum asks where is my mechanosynthesis?

I decided several years ago that I was interested in helping make
mechanosynthesis happen. I was bored with my career, lucrative and
successful though it was, and thought this would be a much bigger
challenge.

I started taking university classes in chemistry and physics (and I've
done very well in them), and I started looking around for PhD programs
that I could apply to so that I could become an expert in the field
and work to push it forward.

I started looking around almost two years ago for a PhD program in
which to work on the problem, and in the interim I've failed to find
one.
