Investigators from the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) has discovered a new way to control up to a limit unprecedented movements of objects at the nanoscale. The investigation, which is published in the latest issue of Science, offers new opportunities for development and improvement of many nanotechnology applications such as nanosensors to detect masses so small that the nucleus of an atom.
The research was led by Adrian Bachtold researcher, group leader of the Quantum Nanoelectronics Research Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology CIN2 (CSIC Joint and ICN), in Bellaterra, Barcelona. Bachtold and his colleague, Daniel Garcia Sanchez and Benjamin Lassagne have enjoyed the cooperation of Yury Tarakanov and Jari Kinarett, scientists at the Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg (Sweden).

Over 40 percent of cases of colon cancer and breast cancer in some countries are preventable through healthy eating patterns, physical activity and weight maintenance, according to estimates from a report that has established recommendations for policy and measures to prevent cancer.
The report, Policy and Action for Cancer Prevention, published by the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) and American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR), has estimated that about 43 percent of colon cancer cases and 42 percent of cases of breast cancer in the UK could be prevented in this way.
