WTEC workshop on Catalysis by Nanostructured Materials

Learn about the current directions in Catalysis by Nanostructured Materials from a panel of experts who have just completed a study initiated by the United States National Science Foundation (NSF) and other U.S. Government agencies to examine the worldwide status and trends in this field. This FREEworkshop will be held from 8:30am till 4:00pm on November 29, 2007 at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)'s L.

Chaired by Dr. Robert Davis, the panel of experts includes:

Dr. Robert Davis, University of Virginia
Dr. Vadim Guliants, University of Cincinnati
Dr. George Huber, University of Massachusetts Amherst
Dr. Raul Lobo, University of Delaware
Dr. Matt Neurock, University of Virginia
Dr. Jeffrey T. Miller, BP Corporation
Dr. Renu Sharma, Arizona State University
Dr. Levi Thompson, University of Michigan

The panel of experts will report on the status of Catalysis for Nanostructured Materials around the world based on their visits to key academic and industrial institutions in Japan, China, S. Korea and Europe (Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom). The distinguished panel will compare findings with the latest research in the United States.

While there is no cost to attend the workshop, registration is required due to seating capacity and NSF security arrangements.
