<p>Freitas, J.D., a des diplômes en physique, psychologie et droit, et a écrit près de 100 articles techniques,
chapitres de livres ou articles de vulgarisation sur un ensemble divers de sujet scientifiques, d'ingéniérie et
légaux. Il a co-edité le <a href="https://www.islandone.org/MMSG/aasm/">1980 NASA feasibility analysis of
self-replicating space factories</a> et <time>1996</time> écrit la 1ʳᵉ <a
href="https://www.foresight.org/Nanomedicine/Respirocytes.html">étude de conception technique détaillée d'un
nanorobot médical </a> jamais publiée dans un journal biomédical réputé à comité de lecture. Plus récemment, Freitas
est l'auteur de <a href="https://www.nanomedicine.com"><em>Nanomedicine</em></a>, la 1ʳᵉ discussion technique sur la
longueur d'un livre sur les applications médicales potentielles de la nanotechnologie moléculaire et la nanorobotique
médicale. <a href="https://www.nanomedicine.com/NMI.htm">Volume I</a> was published in October 1999 by Landes
Bioscience while Freitas was a <a href="https://www.imm.org/#IMMpeople">Research Fellow</a> at the <a
href="https://www.imm.org">Institute for Molecular Manufacturing</a> (IMM) in Palo Alto, California. Freitas
published <a href="https://www.nanomedicine.com/NMIIA.htm">Volume IIA</a> in October 2003 with <a
href="https://www.landesbioscience.com">Landes Bioscience</a> while serving as a <a
href="https://www.zyvex.com/News/FreitasPR.html">Research Scientist</a> at <a href="https://www.zyvex.com">Zyvex
Corp.</a>, a nanotechnology company headquartered in Richardson, Texas during 2000-2004. Freitas is now completing
Nanomedicine Volumes <a href="https://www.nanomedicine.com/NMIIB.htm">IIB</a> and <a
href="https://www.nanomedicine.com/NMIII.htm">III</a> and is also consulting on <a
href="https://www.molecularassembler.com">molecular assembler</a> design as Senior Research Fellow at IMM.</p>
<p>"The most important applications of machine-phase nanotechnology will be in medicine. Not only will human health,
comfort, safety, and pleasure be vastly improved, but nanomedicine could dramatically extend the <a
href="https://www.rfreitas.com/Nano/DeathIsAnOutrage.htm">lifespan</a> of the individual human being and greatly
expand the possibilities of the human form. I'm trying to help lay the technical foundations for the future field of
medical nanorobotics by conducting theoretical analyses of specific nanomedical systems and by writing a 4-volume <a
href="https://www.nanomedicine.com">technical book series</a> that looks at all relevant issues including basic
engineering capabilities, biocompatibility, systems and operations of medical nanorobots, clinical applications, and
ethical issues."</p>
