My name is Eakkachai (Ton) Pengwang. I am a graduate student at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a MOST scholar since 2000. I am presenting a poster on my Ph.D. researches on nanoscale porous silicon membrane exchange assembly (MEA) for micro fuel cells. This study can enhance a path for developments on nanotechnology, renewable energy, and precise manufacturing when I return to my home country.

From this ATPAC meeting, I have learned many aspects (from both individual and institutional sides) on how to help developments in science, research, and education for the country of Thailand and its people. I also knitted great connections with Thai professional communities in U.S. and Thailand.
