S
tephen Rudisill obtained his B.S. degree in chemistry from Beloit College in 2009 and his M.S. degree in chemistry from the University of Minnesota in 2011. He is currently pursuing his Ph.D. in materials chemistry, advised by Professor A. Stein. His research interests include bottom-up routes to micro- and nanostructured materials, ceramics, and hightemperature chemistry. Zhiyong Wang obtained his B.S. degree at the University of Science and Technology, Hefei, Anhui Province, China, in 2003 and his Ph.D. degree under the supervision of Professor A. Stein in 2008. After carrying out postdoctoral research at Corning Inc., he returned to China to work as a senior research engineer for ENN. He is now the vice president for R & D at Xenergee in Qingdao, China. Andreas Stein is a Distinguished McKnight University Professor at the University of Minnesota. He received his Ph. D. in physical chemistry from the University of Toronto in 1991 and carried out postdoctoral research at Bayer A.G., Germany, the University of Texas, and Pennsylvania State University. Professor Stein’s research interests are in the field of solid-state chemistry, in particular, porous materials, templating methods, and nanocomposites. He is the recipient of several awards, including a Merck professorship, a 3M faculty grant, a DuPont young professor grant, an NSF CAREER award, a McKnight land-grant professorship, and a David & Lucile Packard fellowship.
