NSE Centers – Present and Future Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Troy, New York, USA 7 December NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Grantees Conference, Arlington, Virginia Richard W. Siegel, Director Rensselaer Nanotechnology Center and NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center for Directed Assembly of Nanostructures

K-12 Programs Undergraduate Colleges Morehouse Mount Holyoke Oberlin Smith Spelman Williams UPR Mayagüez Visiting Researchers Industry Partners ABB Albany International Chisso Eastman Kodak IBM Intel Philip Morris Sealed Air New York State Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center for Directed Assembly of Nanostructures Founded in September Renewed until 2011

Industry partnership projects and fellowships: Fundamental and applied research projects leading to joint patents and commercialization ventures NSEC spin-off companies: DzymeTech Inc. from Lu laboratory UIUC Solidus Biosciences Inc. from Dordick laboratory RPI Paper Battery Company from Linhardt laboratory RPI Broader Impacts Benefiting society through NSEC research Quantifiable outputs – first 8 years: 702 publications; 60 patents; 65 graduate degrees; 1472 seminars; 49 REU students – including 35 from under-represented groups DzymeTech The Molecularium ® Project: Entertainment vehicles for science literacy from Garde, Schadler, Siegel groups at RPI Fundamental research successes: Polymer-nanoparticle systems – gels and nanocomposites Biomolecule-nanostructure interactions and composites “Riding Snowflakes” “Molecules to the MAX!”

Questions for the Future  How do we secure and grow the valuable taxpayer investment in the NSEC program?  How do we build upon the NSEC scientific accomplishments to create new opportunities?  How do we create new hierarchical systems to move the fruits of NSE developments into the marketplace to further benefit society?
