ITHACA, N.Y., April 12, 2010 — The Kavli Institute at Cornell for Nanoscale Science has named Paul McEuen, the Goldwin Smith Professor of Physics, as the director, while David A. Muller, associate professor of applied and engineering physics, will serve as co-director. According to the school, this push will help to evolve the school from a think tank to a proving ground for nanosciences. The institute will fund projects and researchers to create and build the tools of the nanoscale future. "If you make a new tool, you can have an enormous impact in a variety of different areas. We don't have eyes and...Read full article
