Gavriel Iddan was an electro-optical engineer at Israel’s Rafael Armament Development Authority, the Israeli authority for development of weapons and military technology. One of Iddan’s projects was to develop the “eye” of a guided missile, which leads the missile to its target.
In 1981, Iddan traveled to Boston on sabbatical to work for a company that produced X-ray tubes and ultrasonic probes. While there, he befriended a gastroenterologist (a physician who focuses on digestive diseases) named Eitan Scapa.

Nano-biotechnology is a promising field of interdisciplinary research. It is a novel scientific approach that involves the use of materials and equipment capable of manipulating physical as well as chemical properties of a substance at molecular levels. Nanoparticles present an extremely gorgeous platform for a diverse range of biological applications. It opens up a wide array of opportunities in various fields like medicine, pharmaceuticals, electronics and agriculture. Nanotechnology is ubiquitous and pervasive. It is an emerging field in all areas of science, engineering and technology. The marriage between nanotechnology and biotechnology yields a new class of nanostructured hybrid patterns that will be very efficient and useful as environmental adsorbents, absorbent materials and adhesion materials in environment.
This are can endeavour to provide and fundamentally streamline the technologies currently used in environmental detection, sensing and remediation. Rapid testing technologies and biosensors related to the control of pests and cross contamination of agriculture and food products will lead to applications of nanotechnology in the near future. These include agricultural productivity enhancement involving nanoporous zeolites for slow release and efficient dosage of water and fertilizer, nanocapsules for herbicide delivery and vector and pest management and nanosensors for pest detection. Most investment is made primarily in developed countries; research advancements provide glimpses of potential applications in agriculture. This overview is concentrated on modern strategies used for the management of water, pesticides, limitations in the use of chemical pesticides and potential of nano-materials in sustainable agriculture management as modern approaches of nano-biotechnology.
The outlook of nano-bioscience in agriculture is vague owing to a lot of grounds, for example, the unconstructive response from people towards genetically modified (GM) crops, need of a lot of required cleverness in government agricultural research and technology units for nano type of explorations and poorly-equipped new instruments and new-fangled technologies.

Lecture given at the Natural Science Section meeting of November 2010 in Chicago. It explores the promises and dangers of Nanotechnology, how Ray Kurzweil\'s Singularity promises similar hopes to those of Spiritual Science but from a materialistic perspective. We then look at the future perceived by Rudolf Steiner where Humanity becomes the 10th Hierarchy and co-creators of the future.

Transhumanism is the belief or theory that the human race can evolve beyond its current physical and mental limitations by means of science and technology. The more we explored this subject, the more we got fascinated to see how people are riding on the current era technologies to surpass the capabilities of human body. If the current explorations in transhumanism are anything to go by, then, we believe the future will be very exciting!
In this report we explore the various technologies, people involved and the advancements made in the field of Transhumanism. We would love to hear your feedback, comments and suggestions. Please mail us at ice@humanfactors.com

Redesigning healthcare, biohacking our lives (IMEC ITF2014)Koen Kas
On our way to redesign healthcare, we will learn to combine different layers of our biological code (now in reading but soon in writing mode), data from visible and invisible sensors, and the connected Internet of Bodies/Things. These guardian angels will open up unseen opportunities for the way we deal with ourselves in health and disease. With DNA soon becoming the new software, combining biology, electronics, attractive design & smart communication will provide the tools to (bio)hack our lives.
Appropriate use of different (nano)technologies will convert us into health consumers, with our doctors as (virtual) coaches. This will move us away from current curative healthcare to precise, preventive and even augmented healthcare. But smart technologies and the data they generate, are just a tool. When not trusted by the established care provider, when not integrated and available in a personal data platform, healthcare will only be pseudo modernized. The real magic happens when these tools allow you to engage and change behaviour. But even in a rapidly automating world, we can’t automate such change. Or can we?
In this talk, I share my views about research gaps in India with emphasis on CSE research. I present some of the difficulties what I have faced which high lights technology gaps. Also, I summarize technology predictions of BBC and other famous individuals. I do also advise the need and scope of futuristic research in CSE in India.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
