Consortium for Nanoscience Research Created

The University of Chicago has combined forces with Argonne National Laboratory to create a $1-million Consortium for Nanoscience Research that will provide an incubator for the next generation of nanoscience researchers.

Building on the strengths of both institutions, this Consortium will focus on four thematic areas: quantum materials, bio-nano composite structures, adaptive nanoscale self-assembly, and nanophotonics. The goal of the Consortium is to use joint appointments at both Argonne and the University to attract the very best researchers to the Chicago area. At this writing, the Consortium has twelve senior fellows and several postdoctoral associates from both institutions, including Heinrich Jaeger, Professor in Physics and the College, who serves as Consortium Director.
