of NSAC and has served as a docent (tour guide) for first few weeks after BNC’s opening. Currently, Prof. Franklin is Addy Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering & Professor of Chemistry at Duke University, with over 90 peer-reviewed papers and more

Join us this Friday afternoon as shares Prof. Franklin shares a part of his academic journey with

Due to COVID, Coffee Hour is moved online and will be held over MS Teams. NSAC aims at providing recognition to all our speakers, and
strives to publicize BNC and the research being carried out here to a global audience. With the speaker's permission, the recorded Coffee Hour sessions will be uploaded on NSAC's
Youtube channel for public access, with due credit to the speakers. All the interviewees will also receive a NSAC Coffee Mug as a token of appreciation.
