In September 2005 it was announced that the University of Washington's Center for Nanotechnology will receive $3.2 million over five years to support graduate student fellows in the center's interdisciplinary nanotechnology program, according to Marjorie Olmstead, UW physics professor and lead investigator on the project. Partners in the endeavor are Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. Don Baer is the PNNL Co-PI on the NSF/NIH project. The PNNL component of this education program is the ability for PNNL to host NSF funded students for either a training quarter or for parts of their thesis work. The IGERT research awards are for one year and can be renewed once. It is expected that IGERT students working at PNNL will have both a PNNL and UW mentor and that they will work on projects of interest to both mentors.
