Prospective Students:

The NanoDynamics Systems Lab (NDSL) has lead to fundamental and significant breakthroughs in nano-interrogation and systems research. It is at the forefront of research that integrates the basic sciences areas of physics and biology with that of the systems area.

Systems areas have been the mainstay of Engineering departments and thus NDSL offers a unique opportunity to engineering students to contribute to nanosciences, scientific instrumentation and fundamental systems research.

NDSL is equipped with the state-of-the art equipment, like Atomic Force Microscopes (AFMs) and Optical Tweezers, geared towards investigation of matter and processes at the small scale. NDSL has active collaborative efforts with leading research labs and nanotech industry. Students that have graduated from NDSL are positioned in world renowned labs and are presently leading cutting edge research.

We at NDSL encourage you to explore the webpage of the lab to obtain more information.

There are currently two PhD. positions open at NDSL. Interested students from related engineering departments, like ECE, ME and AeroE, can email to murti@iastate.edu
