La Nanociencia es el estudio de estructuras de tamaño entre 1 y 100 nanómetros, llamadas nanoestructuras, las cuales, debido a sus pequeñas escalas de tamaño se comportan de manera diferente a la materia a escalas micro y macroscópicas. Estas nuevas propiedades de los materiales permiten la fabricación de nuevos productos y tecnologías. Son tantas las posibles aplicaciones que se habla de una nueva revolución tecnológica. En este trabajo se argumenta la importancia de la divulgación y la formación científica y tecnológica en nanociencia y nanotecnología. También se mencionan, brevemente, las acciones que acomete en este sentido la Red Internacional “José Roberto Leite” de Divulgación y Formación en Nanotecnología, NANODYF (www.nanodyf.com)
Nanoscience is the study of structures of size between 1 and 100 nanometers, called nanostructures, which, due to their small size scales behave differently from those at micro and macroscopic scales. These new properties of the materials could result in the manufacture of new products and development of new technologies. There are so many possible applications that it is believed that we are at the beginning of a new technological revolution. In this paper the importance of outreach and scientific and technological training in nanoscience and nanotechnology is argued. It is also briefly mentioned undertaken actions in this sense by the International Network "Jose Roberto Leite" of Outreach and Training in Nanotechnology, NANODYF (www.nanodyf.com)
