Biography

Professor Sankar over the past 33 years has developed a high-profile, internationally recognized, advanced broad-based materials innovation and technology activities at NC A&T State University (NCAT), Greensboro, NC. He serves/d as director of the Center for Advanced Materials and Smart Structures, National Science Foundation’s (NSF) –CREST program, Director for the Navy Center for Nanoscience and Nanomaterials, and Site coordinator for the NSF- Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center. Also under his leadership, NCAT was chosen (2008) to house the NSF’s Generation 3 - Engineering Research Center (ERC) for Revolutionizing Metallic Biomaterials. The ERCs are considered the crown jewel of NSF and only select few universities over past 30 years have been awarded after a gargantuan competition to conduct transformational and revolutionary engineering innovation for the economic impact and global leadership of the nation. Through these centers, Sankar and the international team of collaborators he has assembled over the years have positioned NCAT in various leading advanced materials Research and Developments through innovative public- private partnerships, surface engineering, convergence of engineering and science in transformational biomedical implant technologies.

The author of more than 400 peer-reviewed articles, book chapters, and scientific papers, Sankar as PI alone, has generated more than $60 million of competitive research funding for NCAT (equipment infrastructure > $14M under one umbrella encompassing 25,000 sq.ft of innovation ecosystem space), filed ten invention disclosures and patents, has organized and sponsored more than 25 international conferences/symposia and has given more than 35 Plenary/Keynote/Invited special address in major get-togethers this decade related to future directions in transformational materials and nano/bio research, education, innovation, economic impact and growth and next generation workforce development. He also played a key role in establishing the BS, MS Bioengineering degree programs at NCAT, the first stand alone at an HBCU in the nation.

Dr. Sankar is leading a sincere effort in making value to American knowledge economy through innovation, translation, manufacturing technologies in broad-based materials with underpinning innovative education, outreach and broadened participation.
