Dear Colleague- If you have an interest in the science of nanoscale energy transport/ conversion or in nanoscale approaches to energy conversion devices (thermoelectrics, photovoltaics, solid-state lighting, etc.), please join us on Fridays at lunchtime for informal "journal club"-style discussions. Students, faculty, research staff and postdoctoral researchers are welcome. When: 12-1:30, every Friday Where: 1001 BRK Lunch: Bring your own, or order ahead from JimmyJohn's (have your order and $$ to Melissa Marris; lanem@purdue.edu by Thursday at 3PM) Format: one presenter will lead an informal critique/discussion of a recent paper or work in progress. The presenter will send a copy of the paper to Deborah a few days before the meeting, for distribution to the mailing list. Mailing list: If you would like to participate, please send your email address to Deborah or Melissa. Your commitment: If you are on the mailing list, and you have a Ph.D., you will be expected to lead a discussion at sometime in the near future! Graduate students are more than welcome to volunteer to lead a discussion as well. Best Regards- Tim -- Timothy D. Sands Mary Jo and Robert L.
