Funding for Research and Education in Atomic Scale Science and Nanotechnology

Even money is a square root of all evil no research or education is done without funding. Although each country has its own way to pay education and research, most of them have special special funding agencies, governmental and private, which provide funding for education and research including atomic scale science and nanotechnology - the focus area of our web portal. This page lists links to the web sites which have information about funding available for research and education in fundamental sciences, math, physics, chemistry and biology including nanotechnology fundamentals, atomic scale materials, process and device design.
