            Nanoscale Exploratory Research (NER)
                  - 4 applications
            Nanoscale Science and Engineering Centers (NSEC )
                  - 1 application
            Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE)

            I am requesting that all faculty members interested in submitting an  application to any of these programs forward a brief pre-application, no later than Noon, Friday August 16, to Mr. Peter Saal, OVPR Research Resources Center, S-5421 Melville Library (z = 3361). Pre-applications consist of c.v.'s of the PI and co-PI's, a brief description of the proposed research, and its potential contribution to the advancement of nanoscale science and engineering. Please inform your faculty of this deadline.
