Here's a great idea: an online student journal of nanotechnology, called News from the Bottom. Let's ask them to introduce themselves...
Welcome to the only journal on the societal implications of nanotechnology edited and written by students! This journal features work by students and non-academics on the epistemological, historical,professional, ethical, legal, and societal implications of nanotechnology and converging technologies. Through the exchange of ideas between students in programs studying nanotechnology, our hope is that a dialogue on the issues will start and a community of student scholars can be fostered. We aim to be a little less formal and more generally informative than your average academic journal in order to best serve our intended audience.
Their first edition has been posted, and the second issue is "in the works." They've just announced a Call for Papers for the third edition. Deadline for submission is May 1, and they say they will consider "articles, reviews, and papers of any length."
We wish the best to the students at the University of South Carolina who are behind this new online journal.
