The University of Maryland MRSEC grants ended in September 2013 after 17 years of successful operation. This site remains as a history of the center, but will not be actively maintained.

MRSEC III (2005-2013) Participant Directory

As of January 2014, the participant directory was modified to reflect alumni from the MRSEC III program (2005-2013), along with approximate dates of MRSEC affiliation. A partial list of MRSEC I & II alumni (1996-2005) can be found here.
