Taoran Le will participate in the U.S.-French Post-Graduate Seminar on Nanocharacterization: Chemical Analysis, which will take place March 17-21 in France. Le is a Ph.D. student in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at Georgia Tech.

Advised by ECE Professor Emmanouil M. (Manos) Tentzeris, Le is one of eight doctoral students selected for this program from more than 65 applications from top tier U.S. universities. The seminar will include four lectures by nanoscale chemical analysis experts and will then be followed by visits to three state-of-the-art French nanocharacterization laboratories: the Cemes in Toulouse and Minatec and the Institut Néel in Grenoble.

Le is a member of the ATHENA Research Group, which is led by Tentzeris. Her research interests include inkjet printing technology, application of novel nano-materials to the design of RF wireless and sensing applications, nano-material characterization at high frequency, "smart skin" technologies, and RF packaging.
