What is NSF funds six new nano centers about?

As part of a $250 million series of grants for nano research in 2004, the US National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded $69 million in five-year grants to create six new Nanoscale Science and Engineering Centers (NSECs). The new NSECs, which complement the eight established since 2001, aim to bring together researchers with diverse expertise in partnership with industry and government labs. They comprise: • Center of Integrated Nanomechanical Systems at the University of California-Berkeley ($11.9 million) for chemical and biological sensing, as well as high-density, low-power, low-cost computation; • Center for High Rate Nanomanufacturing at Northeastern University ($12.4 million) to develop techniques for the electronic, medical, and automotive industries; • Center for Affordable Nanoengineering of Polymer Biomedical Devices at Ohio State University ($12.9 million) to develop mass production methods for diagnostic and therapeutic nanodevices and structures; • Center for Probing the Nanoscale at Stanford University ($7.5 million) to enhance measurement, imaging, and control of nanoscale phenomena; • Center for Templated Synthesis and Assembly at the Nanoscale ($13.4 million) at
