Larry Nagahara Named a Fellow of the Electrochemical Society

Larry Nagahara, the associate dean for research in the Whiting School of Engineering and a research professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, has been named a Fellow of the Electrochemical Society (ECS).

For more than 25 years, Nagahara has been a thought leader in nanotechnology, with a focus on the development of novel scanning probe microscopy, carbon nanotube applications, molecular electronics, nanoenergy, and nanosensors.

ECS cited him for the “elucidation of nanometer scale phenomena at the solid-liquid interface with scanning probe microscopy, pioneering applications made toward biological/chemical nanosensors, and for vigorous promotion of sensor science and technology, particularly biomedical sensors, within the ECS Sensor Division and its broader impact to the research community.”
