I'm pleased to announce that I am one of the Nifty Fifty! The USA Science & Engineering Festival (USASEF www.usasciencefestival.com) is the largest celebration of science and engineering in the US and the Nifty Fifty (times 2) are the one hundred most inspiring science/engineering professionals who will help re-invigorate the interest of our young people, by going into a Greater D.C. School (including Maryland and Northern Virginia) to present to a local high school assembly in Spring 2012.

I was nominated by McGraw Hill and will join speakers such as: NIH Director Francis Collins, MacArthur Genius Bonnie Bassler, AAAS President Alan Leshner, Hollywood Special Effects Physicist Jim Kakalios, AIDS Researcher Anthony Fauci, Titanic discoverer David Gallo, and former migrant worker and now leading neurosurgeon Alfredo Quinones and 20 Nobel Laureates.
