Professor Mildred S. Dresselhaus has been awarded the 2012 Kavli Prize in Nanoscience “for her pioneering contributions to the study of phonons, electron-phonon interactions, and thermal transport in nanostructures.”
The Kavli Prize is awarded biannually to scientists who have made a seminal contribution to the fields of astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience.
