\u00a0What is the relevance of nanotechnology to a common man?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nanotechnology increases the efficacy of pharma drugs which helps to treat serious diseases like cancer and also regular medical issues like anti-fungal ailments.<\/p>\n

Nanotechnology is an innovative process which changes the bio-profile of molecules by reducing particle size. It reduces the cost of medicines and makes them cost-effective.<\/p>\n

Fruits of her Labour<\/strong><\/p>\n

    What is the future in nano technology for students?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Most students of nanotechnology do not get a sense of professional security, so they avoid getting into research work
    \n\"Dr<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n

    How and where to study nanotechnology? <\/strong><\/p>\n

    After a bachelor of pharmacy from a private or govt institute, a student can take admission in nanoscience.<\/p>\n

    What are the impediments in getting maximum benefit out of research and innovation? <\/strong><\/p>\n

    The pharma industry does not trust academic research. The academia needs more investment from the government for R&D (research and development).<\/p>\n

    Any message for students? <\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. No replacement for hard work<\/li>\n
    2. Read, read and read<\/li>\n
