RTTA 1: Research & Innovation Systems Analysis
The goal of RTTA 1 is to characterize the technical scope and dynamics of the Nanoscale Science and Engineering (NSE) enterprise and the how NSE affects a variety of public values and outcomes.
RTTA 1 is split into two parts:
- RTTA 1/1: Organization, Structure, and Trajectories of Emerging Nanoscience characterizes NSE through data- and text-mining, interviews and other methods. The strategic areas of emphasis are the organization, structure and trajectories of emerging nanotechnology applications.
- RTTA 1/2: Nanotechnology Enterprise and Applications develops strategic intelligence about nanotechnology commercialization in the US and globally, through the creation of a corporate panel data set.
