About 2020 Science

2020 Science started life in 2007 as a nanotechnology blog at SafeNano. In the following years it developed into a personal blog addressing emerging technologies, responsible innovation, risk, science communication, and the intersection between science and society more generally.

It was written by Andrew Maynard – a professor in the Arizona State University School for the Future of Innovation in Society, and Director of the ASU Risk Innovation Lab.

in 2019 — just before we reached the year 2020 — the blog was finally put to rest as Andrew focused on other initiatives.

You can read about the aspirations of the blog as it was first conceived here, and a reflection on where it ended up nearly 13 years later here
