Could Spider Silk Save Your Life?
Posted today at Nanotech-Now.com, Summer Johnson has written a column on the ethical issues with the new polymer nanocomposites that material scientists have created and their appropriate and inappropriate uses inside (and outside) the human body for the Lifeboat Foundation's column called "Scenarios and Solutions for a Nano-World".

These columns are the result of a collaboration between the Lifeboat Foundation, Nanotechnology-Now, and The American Journal of Bioethics. Podcasts for these columns will soon be available at podcast.bioethics.net. So stay tuned!
