The Center for Biological and Environmental Nanotechnology at Rice University aims to shape nanoscience into a discipline with the relevance, triumphs, and vitality of a modern-day polymer science. Dr. Kristen Kulinowshi has studied how material structured on the nanometer length scale can be used to manipulate light through the creation of a "photonic band gap". She worked in the D.C. office of a member of the U.S. House of Representatives on issues such as weapons of mass destruction, antiterrorism legislation, and domestic nuclear power security.
