Frederic Sansoz, University of Vermont (IMAGE) University of Vermont Caption Frederic Sansoz, a professor of engineering at the University of Vermont, works at the intersection of nanotechnology and materials science. His work makes extensive use of state-of-the-art atomistic simulation techniques, as well as of atomic force microscopy-based experiments for the discovery of new properties -- like a newly discovered set of defects in coherent twin boundaries.
