Last Wednesday, Sandra Rosenthal and Scott Niezgoda accepted the invitation of Christina West, Vanderbilt’s assistant vice chancellor for federal relations, to represent Vanderbilt at the Coalition for National Science Funding’s Capitol Hill day and exhibition.
Rosenthal is the Jack and Pamela Eagan Professor of Chemistry and director of the Vanderbilt Institute of Nanoscale Science and Engineering. Niezgoda is a graduate student who is working on third generation solar cells with the support of the National Science Foundation’s TN-SCORE award – a special program designed to strengthen Tennessee’s science and engineering infrastructure.
