Any idea on what kinds of affects this could have on drug treatments. For instance with peopl ewho have Chronic Hepatitis C they are taking a couple of pints of blood our of the pataint then hitting that blood with U.V. light and puttin gthe blood back into the patient and this lowers the viral load. Anyways my question is are there any light reacting drugs in the future like take a pill then stand under a light to activate it?

1: How do we actually manipulate atoms??Are their machines to work on that scale or how?
2: In the materials section, any data pertaining to cement.
3: What level of investments are required to work on nanoscale..just a rough figure.
Actually im as uninformed
