Department Head and McAfee Professor of Engineering Markus Buehler was selected as the 2016 recipient of the Outstanding Young Scientist Award (OYSA) of the NANOSMAT Society.  The NANOSMAT Society is an international organization focused on materials related to nanoscience, engineering and nanotechnology, and hosts a series of international conferences. The OYSA award recognizes professional career achievements for those up to 45 years old. Specifically, Buehler was selected for his significant contributions in making nanotechnology sustainable and scalable for large-volume materials applications and for the development and application of new modeling, design and manufacturing approaches for advanced materials. Earlier this year, Buehler was also elected a Fellow of the NANOSMAT Society. More information.
