Current Projects:
The Indiana 21st Century Research & Technology Project
	Indiana 21st Century Research & Technology Project "Multi-scale Methodology for the Design of Active Materials". The Indiana 21st Century Research & Technology Fund was established by the State in 1999 to support the expansion of the high technology sector of Indiana's economy, with the expectation of creating significant economic impact and job growth.
	The Fund implements these goals through the creation of academic-commercial sector research and development partnerships. The Fund makes awards based on peer review, involving a review panel comprised of science and technology researchers and economics experts from across the country.
