A UW-Madison center for nanotechnology has snagged millions in federal dollars to pursue research toward stem-cell medical breakthroughs and computer displays that one day might be rolled up like a poster.
Juan de Pablo, director of UW-Madison’s Materials Research Science and Engineering Center, said he learned Monday that the National Science Foundation is awarding his center $14.8 million to continue its work over the next six years. The federal agency is funding a select few centers around the country that do research into materials and nanotechnology, the science of working at incredibly small scales.
