REMINDER: TODAY @ 12noon in BRK 2001 Dear all, The next Future BNC Meeting will be this Thursday, 2/14 @ 12pm (lunch provided) in BRK 2001. Ali Shakouri, Director of the Birck Nanotechnology Center will present an overview of group's research and Birck Strategic Planning for the first half then the remainder will be open for high-level discussion of collaboration opportunities that can lead to future center of excellence and/or also brainstorm about a shared vision for Birck. Please find below Ali's abstract. Overview of Group's Research and Birck Strategic Plan Abstract: Research in nanoscale heat transport and thermal characterization will be presented. This will include phonon hydrodynamics, self-healing electromigration structures, and far-field sub-diffraction thermal imaging. Will give a brief overview of nano manufacturing preeminent team, SMART film industry consortium and Wabash Heartland Innovation Network (WHIN). In the second part of the talk, some ideas from Birck Strategic Plan will be presented. These include: helping multi-disciplinary teams excel, develop new centers, help create a local high tech ecosystem and advanced Birck design. Attached (and below) is the schedule of future BNC meetings, please mark your calendars to attend if possible.
