The Materials Research Society (MRS, 506 Keystone Dr., Warrendale, PA 15086; Tel: 724/779-3004) has communicated its "wholehearted support" for President Clinton's $500 million research budget for a new initiative in nanoscale research. This new funding, part of the Administration's FY2001 budget, marks an 84% increase in federal funding for nanoscience and nanotechnology R&D. MRS support was conveyed by its president, Harry A.
