Though Frans A. Spaepen will wrap up his term as interim dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences on July 1, he isn't finished with temporary positions just yet. The applied physics professor will serve as interim director of the Center for Nanoscale Systems, where his most visible responsibility will be the far-from-nano task of reducing the center's $6.1 million budget by as much as 20 percent while seeking to maintain the quality of its research opportunities. Colleagues praised Spaepen both for his administrative experience and his background as a material scientist...
Whoa - triple the density? Isn't the goal to ease traffic, not to add to it?
