Ohio University professor and NSNM investigator Dr. Sergio Ulloa recently received a grant to organize the Pan-American Advance Studies Institute which will focus on electronic states and excitations in nanostructures. This will occur June 11-22, 2007 in Zacatecas, Mexico.


“The purpose is really to exchange information across the continent,” said Ulloa, who estimates that 100 people from Canada, the U.S. and Latin America will attend.


Ulloa serves as the organizer in the U.S., and there are two co-organizers in Mexico. He suspects that three or four students and researchers from Ohio University will attend


The $98,000 grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation.
