Nanotechnology Experts
The University of Maryland and its recently opened Maryland Center for Integrated Nano Science and Engineering (M-CINSE) are leading research in many areas of nanotechnology.
The university's rapidly developing leadership in nano science and engineering was recognized in the May/June 2005 issue of Small Times magazine. In that issue, the magazine -- which details technological advances, applications and investment opportunities in micro and nanotechnology -- ranks the University of Maryland as number one in both nano research and nano education. Maryland was ranked number two in micro research (tied with Michigan).
This list contains some of Maryland's top nantech researchers.
