ADVISORY BOARD



Professor P. M. Ajayan

Professor Pulickel Ajayan is Benjamin M. and Mary Greenwood Anderson Professor in Engineering and Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Rice University where he directs a multi-disciplinary team effort with the goal of developing carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as functional materials. He has worked in the field from its onset and his recent contributions include tunable-pore CNT membrane filters, chip cooling with integrated CNT architectures, CNT based Gecko- tape, controlled fabrication of CNT architectures, and CNT-polymer composites. He was awarded the distinction of AAAS Fellow by the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2007. Election as a fellow is an honor bestowed upon AAAS members by their peers, selected "for sustained and seminal contributions to the material sciences and applications of carbon nanotubes." He is also the winner of the MRS Medal in 2006 for his work in carbon nanotube science.
