Nanotechnology Outreach by an Anthropologist

My background in cultural anthropology has brought me to a situation where I work with an interdisciplinary research team studying societal interactions with nanotechnology. Our work benefits from the distinctive disciplinary backgrounds of its members, but it is seldom necessary to credit a particular idea or project to one traditional discipline or another. We borrow freely from each other's backgrounds, and this kind of synergy contributes greatly to the success of our work. Much of what I do, for example, is not specific to anthropology. In fact I sometimes find that people who read my articles on nanotechnology are surprised to find that I am an anthropologist.
