Kowal, Institute of Non‐ferrous MetalCentral Laboratory ofs R, Adzic, Brookhaven National Laboratory M. Kopczyk, Institute of Non‐ferrous MetalCentral Laboratory ofs The possibility of obtaining electrical energy from bio‐ethanol has caused increased interest in Direct Ethanol Fuel Cells (DEFC). Currently‐available commercial platinum nano composites do not ensure complete combustion of ethanol. Two‐component catalysts containing Pt and SnOx, characterized by higher selectivity, are still not satisfactory. Catalyst which effectively oxidize ethanol and split the C‐C bond in ethanol at room temperature was prepared in 2005‐2009 [1‐ 4]. In order to improve the efficiency of high‐temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), particularly those utilizing ethanol as a fuel (ESOFC), catalysts have been researched which increase the power density of such a fuel cell. In order to find the most effective catalyst, research was conducted in the field of nano‐oxides such as SnO2, SnO2/Sb2O5, CeO2 and TiO2. The physicochemical properties of such synthesized oxides were evaluated using XRD and SEM. These oxides were then deposited on nickel foam in an external reformer, which was placed before an anode of the SOFC . It was found that a Ni/CeO2 catalyst placed in external reformer gives the highest power density of ESOFC (Ethanol Solid Oxide Fuel Cell). THE EFFECTS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN NON‐R&D SECTORS: INSIGHTS FROM ECONOMIC THEORY AND HISTORY Aashish Mehta, Center for Nanotechnology in Society ‐ UCSB Abstract: There appear to be no empirical studies of the effects of nanotechnology on non‐R&D employment opportunities.

    FINDINGMarchS 2005 inside Andrés García The Forces That Bind 3 Hilary Godwin Getting the Lead Out 9 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES National Institutes of Health National Institute of General Medical Sciences Edited by Alison Davis under contract 263-MD-409758 Produced by the Office of Communications and Public Liaison National Institute of General Medical Sciences National Institutes of Health On the Cover Photo of Andrés García: Nicole Cappello Photo of Hilary Godwin: Matthew Gilson Editor’s Note Should scientists genetically engineer grains to have extra vitamins? Is it okay for a couple to choose the sex of their baby? Should a 17-year-old girl whose aunt had breast cancer get a genetic test? No one can claim to have the “right” answer to these or countless other questions that meet at the intersection of science and society. Yet all of us should be comfortable ask­ ing them and knowing where to find more information to develop an opinion based on the available facts. Does that mean we should spend most of our free time in the library, reading scientific texts and journals? Should we become scientists or doctors? These actions are not absolutely necessary for developing a critical mind. Of course, there are a great many things to be said for reading about science and going to graduate school. But have you ever thought about spending some time doing research in a lab? It’s a fun, hands-on way to learn. If you’d like to give it a try, contact your local college or university and ask about research programs for high school students.
