The
general framework of the nanotechnology workshop will be similar to
those held on campus in May 2003-05; which were well attended by
industry and academia. Some of those interactions have since
then led to industry and cross-campus collaborations.
The
workshop will provide a forum for industry interactions and
collaborations. The
workshop will bring together campus community (faculty, graduate and
undergraduates, administration) from UIUC and
Washington
University
, and industry engaged in cutting-edge research.
A workshop panel will discuss the roadmap to future direction
of research and development in nanomedicine.
Format:
The
two-day workshop will be held on May 4 and 5, 2006 at the
prestigious Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology at
the
University
of
Illinois
at Urbana-Champaign. The workshop program will include plenary
session speeches, technical sessions, panel discussion, and poster
sessions, in addition to lunch and dinner receptions.

contracts for programs in nanotechnology, biosensors,
therapeutic delivery systems, and new technology platforms and imaging
systems. He currently serves on several committees, including the
NCI-FDA Interagency Oncology Task Force
and the Biomedical Information Science
and Technology Consortium.
Robert
Chau, Intel
Dr.
Robert Chau is an Intel Senior Fellow and Director of Transistor
Research and Nanotechnology at Intel Corporation. He is responsible
for directing research and development in advanced transistors,
process modules and technologies, and silicon integrated processes for
microprocessor applications. He is also leading research efforts in
emerging non-silicon nanotechnologies (e.g. III-V quantum-well devices
and carbon nanotubes) for future nanoelectronics applications. Dr.
Chau holds more than 75 U.S. patents, has received six Intel
Achievement Awards and 13 Intel Logic Technology Development Division
Recognition Awards,was recognized by IndustryWeek in 2003 as one of
the 16 “R&D Stars” in the United States, and is an IEEE
Fellow.

Session Speaker
Richard
Fisher, Program Leader, Nanomedicine Initiative, Program Director,
Corneal Diseases, NEI, NIH
Richard
S. Fisher received a Ph.D from the Department of Physiology and
Biophysics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. As a staff
fellow in the Laboratory of Kidney and Electrolyte Metabolism,National
Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute of the NIH, he continued studies of
membrane transport properties and cell volume regulation. While a
staff physiologist in the Department of Nephrology,Division of
Medicine at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, he was also a
visiting scientist at the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium. Dr.
Fisher returned to the NIH as a scientific review administrator in the
National Institute of Deafness and other Communication Disorders and
then joined the National Eye Institute as a health science
administrator where he is the Director of the Corneal Diseases
program. He has served on the Institutional Review Board of Frederick
Memorial Hospital, Frederick, MD and has served on various trans-NIH
committees. He also currently serves as the project team leader for
the Nanomedicine Initiative.

About
Micro and Nanotechnology Laboratory
The Micro and Nanotechnology Laboratory (MNTL) at the College of
Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is one of
the nation's largest and most sophisticated university-based
facilities for semiconductor, nanotechnology, and biotechnology
research. The laboratory is a user facility that is available for
use by university and industry from across the nation. It contains
over 8,000 square feet of class 100 and class 1000 clean room
laboratory and state-of-the-art ultra-high-speed optical and
electrical device and circuit measurements. The bionanosystems area
focuses on utilizing the various technologies developed in
materials,nanofabrication, devices, MEMS and NEMS to study and solve
biological issues. Biomolecular flow patterns in nanoscale channels,
integration of lasers onto biochips for real-time fluorescence study
of bioreactions, and implantation of active devices in cells to
study cellular biochemistry are examples of research activities
being carried out. Currently, an $18 million expansion of the MNTL
is underway, which would include bionanotechnology and additional
space for researchers. The expansion is scheduled to complete in
Fall 2006.
