A sixth company from its stable, Luna Innovations announced the formation of its Luna nanoWorks — an independent business focused on manufacturing revolutionary products based on recently discovered carbonaceous nanomaterials.
Dr. Stephen Wilson, a world-renowned fullerene scientist, will be its President. Wilson was founder and Chief Scientific Officer of C Sixty, Inc, a Houston biopharmaceutical company based on fullerene technology. He is a recognized expert and innovator with over 250 patents and publications in organic chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology, and nanotechnology. Currently, he is setting the vision for Luna nanoWorks and assembling the technical and management team to lead the new enterprise.
Charles Gause, who previously directed Luna’s nanomaterial research and development group, will be Vice President. Gause has been leading the development of Luna’s unique nanomaterial production process. He has extensive manufacturing and operations background and has been instrumental, along with Luna Vice President Ben Plowman, in raising significant funds to support this project. At the Danville facility, Gause will continue leading the operations and business development efforts.
Luna Innovations is a leader in nanotechnology commercialization resulting in state-of-the-art nanomaterials manufacturing and product development. Currently, there are limited carbonaceous nanomaterial quantities to supply the ever-increasing demand by end-users. Luna nanoWorks will utilize nanotechnology to provide products for cancer therapy, faster electronics, better lubricants, stronger textiles, and chemical and biological warfare testing and disposal for homeland security. |
