i think we have to use technology to help us live better, whether it is mobile technology, nanotechnology combination. we have to address this alarming health trend. with that in mind, i thought in ourhat happened mobile phone generation. i don't know whether you know this character. if you are old enough, maybe you have seen it. it is from wall street. you have seen this heavy phone. in fact, we've got one here. [laughter] it is heavy. .ook at the display it is black and white. and your talk time was 30 minutes. $4000.was priced at in the technology field have been working on this. how do we solve this issue? today, thek at it samsung as five -- s5, state of art. only something that not wall street, but all of main street can buy. smartphonesion in today is 1.2 billion units to be sold in 2014, and it is steady numbers come on numbers that are driving out into the street. if you look at the semi conductor industry as a whole, going to mobile phones. it is driving growth. we think this has done a lot of wonders for the industry. but the question is, can we do more? let's address the chang

>> nanotechnology along with a.i. can compress it into such miniaturization. that possible you do think right now? >> it is. i found out -- i'm a novelist and people say things to me that they'd never say to a journalist. they're working on miniature drones. i call them drone sects. they can't be controlled with a human operator like our drones today. >> are we smart enough to create artificial intelligence that will follow the standards. the book is "the kraken project," and the author is douglas preston. thanks for being here. thank you for joining us. see you soon. join us tomorrow night. good night from new york.

investments in science are essential if our country is to continue to lead the world in nanotechnology, supercomputering and other fields that yield new jobs and entire new cities. the way to restore public support is not to continue grants with taxpayer money. the amendment is a small but important step in the right direction and it sets the precedent for the science committee, the appropriations committee, and the house to take additional steps in the future to assure that n.s.f.-funded research is in fact in the national interest. madam chair, i yield back the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. for what purpose does the gentleman from virginia seek recognition? mr. wolf: i move to strike the requisite number of words. the chair: the gentleman is recognized for five minutes. mr. wolf: i have no objection to the amendment. i share the opinion that n.s.f. must exercise caution and i should tell colleagues that n.s.f. funding is at an all-time high. this is a republican committee, if you will. the house. and we support the sciences. i think

it has put forward new technologies such as nanotechnology, imaging that are leading to entirely new ways to develop therapist. these advances are fully realized, people with cancer will be able to receive more effective treatment. and in my work on the energy and commerce committee and particularly on the health subcommittee, i am sure that the way of the future is personalized medical care. and in a coordinated capacity, the members of the committee and members of the subcommittee are working together to create that new wave of the future regarding personalized medicine. federal investments in cancer research have also resulted in a massive increase in the quality of treatments available to cancer patients. i have the highest confidence in dr. francis collins and his team at the national institutes of health. have toured n.i.h.'s magnificent facility in bethesda, the best of its kind on the face of the earth. some of the best doctors, greatest intell ebts and dedicated professionals are working every day to course the future of medicine and tackle this terrible disease and continue

fact is it's a democratic right and the real question we have to think of is what happens when nanotechnology is approved on a wide scale what about synthetic biology where we have those rights of democratic right to know what's that any food on our table has been produced through synthetic biology which is coming down the pike. this is a pretty fundamental thing and it's amazing when you think that in the whole citizens united was decided not so much on a corporation's right to speak but the average citizen's right to know that was the logic that it's used to kind of reverse engineer citizens united it's amazing that you know something something very similar that is not being used for this it seems as maybe slowly it will be decided in our favor and you never know home never know david alexis marion thank you all so much for being with us tonight this is a topic that is not going away and just just once again tomorrow the annual march against monsanto in four hundred cities all across united states thank you i just don't think i'm so much to see this in other conversations of the great minds
