The latest nanotech will cure cancer claim comes courtesy of some very sloppy journalism at India Daily. While a nanotech breakthrough would be welcome, as we have pointed out countless times, nanotech is just one part of the equation.
Still, it does indicate how poorly many journalists are informed about nanotechnology, with much of he media having little problem of flip flopping between claims of a cure for cancer and grey goo. We dont think that wiping out all life on earth is the solution that the U.S. National Cancer Institute has in mind.
