Four overarching questions were addressed at the nanoscience conference:
- What is the most significant problem that can be overcome in the next decade by merging cell biology and physical machines, and how?
- What are the most significant fundamental questions in biology that can be addressed by the merger of biology and physical machines?
- What are the limits on conventional medicine/biotechnology that can only be overcome through nano approaches?
- What are the ethical, scientific, and societal implications of the merger of cell biology and physical machines?
In addition, three overall themes were identified:
- The future of nanomedicine,
- The cell-nanomachine interface, and
- Design, generation, and manufacturing of new nanomachines and nanosystems.
