The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) announced last month that manufacturing industry executive Michael F. Molnar has been appointed to be the agency’s first-ever Chief Manufacturing Officer.

Molnar will be responsible for planning and coordination of the Institute’s broad array of manufacturing research and services programs. He will serve as NIST’s central point of contact with the White House, the Department of Commerce, and other agencies on technical and policy issues related to manufacturing.

Molnar has previously served as a federal fellow in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. Molnar will begin working at NIST on August 29, 2011.
