Plenary Session: Chemical Engineering Principles for Nanotechnology


Description:
This is a plenary session sponsored by the AIChE Nanoscale Science and Engineering Forum (NSEF). The goal is to highlight chemical engineering contributions to nanotechnology. The speakers in this session will provide a broad perspective of chemical engineering principles and contributions to nanotechnology that would be of interest to industrial scientists entering nanotechnology or academic scientists wishing to learn about new research areas. Five distinguished speakers will be invited to discuss a range of nanotechnology topics including nanofabrication, nanostructured materials, nanodevices, and bionanotechnology. This year's speakers include the NSEF Young Investigator awardee (Dr. Virgnia Davis), the NSEF Forum awardee (Dr. Michael Strano), and the incoming NSEF Chair (Dr. Kirk Ziegler).
