Mission Statement

The Center for Molecular Cybernetics is an NSF Chemical Bonding Center (CBC) that concentrates on developing the theoretical and experimental tools to program and to observe the autonomous behavior of individual molecules or complexes that traverse, interrogate, and modify surface landscapes.

Outreach & Education

The CMC participants, including educational thrust and committees, come from 22 institutions in 16 states, with three international partners, in Germany, France, and Japan and two Board Members from Switzerland and the Netherlands.  The group is diverse in geography, student bodies, and research/education traditions, and this diversity is important to the broad dissemination of our work.  These institutions collectively represent over 300,000 students (150,000 in Florida and Arizona alone), from all regions of the USA and the world.  The total number of participants in the groups that are specifically affiliated with CMC is greater than 250.
