Georgia Tech and the Renewable Bioproducts Institute were well represented at “Cellulosic Nanomaterials: A Path To Commercialization”, a workshop co-sponsored by the US Forest Service and the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) in Washington DC from May 20-21. Adjunct professor Robert Moon spoke, and Norman Marsolan and associate professor Meisha Shofner were in attendance at the two-day event.
