Virginia M. Ayres is an Associate Professor in the Department of
Electrical & Computer Engineering, and heads the Electronic and
Biological Nano-structures Laboratory (http://www.egr.msu.edu/ebnl) at
Michigan State University. Her research interests include the reduced
dimensionality-based electronic properties of nanotubes and nanowires.
Dr. Ayres earned her Ph.D. and M.S. in Physics from Purdue University,
and her B.A. in Physics and Biophysics from the Johns Hopkins
University. She is the recipient of two NASA Faculty Fellowship Awards
and of two international awards from the Japan Society for Promotion of
Science and from Tokyo Institute of Technology for research and
education in Japan. In 2006, she was honored with an Outstanding
Alumnus Award from the Department of Physics at Purdue University. Credits
