No useful activities. Some information that could be used in curriculum modules

 

The U.S. national network of centers for Materials Research encompasses 28 centers funded by the National Science Foundation, including the Cornell Center for Materials Research (CCMR) as part of the Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSEC) program.

 

The mission of CCMR is to advance, explore and exploit the forefront of the science and engineering of advanced materials. The unifying theme of our current research is the study of materials purposefully structured at the nanoscale (near atomic dimensions). Our aim is to be world leaders in the design, control and understanding of the behavior of both crystalline and disordered nano-materials. This objective is pursued through fundamental experimental and theoretical studies of the assembly and processing of nano-materials and of their resulting behavior.
