Nanoscale/Molecular Mechanics
Date: May 12-17, 2002
Location: Outrigger Wailea Resort, Maui, Hawaii
Website: http://www.molecular-mechanics.org/
Description: The cross-disciplinary focus of the First International School and Conference on Nanoscale/Molecular Mechanics (N/M2-I) upon mechanics in ultra-small systems will advance this emerging field in three important ways: it will accelerate fundamental technical advances in this area, contribute to the emergence of new technologies involving nanoscale/molecular mechanics, and establish a group of early adopters for the revolutionary capabilities that are emerging. The CNSI professors participating at the conference are James Gimzewski, James Heath, Carlo Montemagno, Chih-Ming Ho, Fraser Stoddart, and Andrew Cleland.

Microgravity, Bio-MEMS, Autonomous Vehicle Systemscs (ICM)
Date: May 10, 2002
Location: The Bradley International Hall, UCLA
Website: http://www.rtr.mae.ucla.edu/
Description: Dozens of the latest breakthroughs and innovations in mechanical and aerospace engineering (MAE) at UCLA will be showcased at the spring research and technology review. Professional engineers, colleagues in industry and members of government research organizations are invited to learn about the research and educational programs being pursued by the MAE department, and to discuss ways they can take advantage of opportunities to collaborate. More than 60 faculty researchers and graduate students will present their latest research projects in dozens of technical areas, including rocket engine systems, autonomous vehicle systems, bio-MEMS and nanotechnology.
