Podcast: Nanotech Solutions for Clean Water
Lack of access to clean drinking water is one of the world's most pressing problems today. While a number of water purification technologies already exist, many of them aren't practical for use in rural, isolated areas or after a natural disaster. Hear about two small, portable nanotech-enabled water filters which could help bring clean, potable water to people in these

Sci-Tech Today: Tiny fragments of Salmonella Bacteria Used to Treat Cancer
Nanotech correspondent Alex Fiorentino descibes how scientists from Australia are using tiny drug delivery packages derived from Salmonella to destroy cancer cells in mice. The packages deliver anti-cancer drugs directly to cancer cells, and have shown promising results in eliminating even drug-resistant cancers. Clinical trials are set to begin next month in Australia.
