Cornell Center for Materials Research @ Cornell University
The major theme of the Cornell MRSEC is mastery of materials at the atomic and molecular level. New ways to synthesize, characterize and understand interfaces and surfaces at the atomic and molecular scales must continue to be invented and exploited to enable forefront discoveries in many fields. The center is aided in these tasks by extensive shared facilities on campus supported by a large interdisciplinary materials community extending well beyond specific MRSEC projects. The Center supports an exceptionally strong education program for pre- K-12, undergraduate and graduate students and the public.
