He is member of the Editorial Advisory Board of the Materials Science forum, the American and Swiss Physical Society, and an Executive Committee member of the Fullerenes Group of the Electrochemical Society. A firm believer in the unparalleled benefits of communication within the scientific community, he organized or co-organized several International Cluster Workshops (ICW'91, ICW'92, ICW'93), Nanotube conferences (NT'99, NT'01, NT'02), and Quantum Transport conferences (QTSM'02/QFS'02). To help bridge the gap between Academia, Industry and Finance, he also initiated two nanotechnology consulting companies.Reaching out to the upcoming generation of scientists, Dr. Tománek presented focussed courses and lectures on Nanotechnology at leading Universities in Europe, Asia and the Americas. He also initiated and currently maintains The Nanotube Site at http://www.pa.msu.edu/cmp/csc/nanotube.html that connects the nanotube community on the web. The URL of his home page is http://www.pa.msu.edu/~tomanek.

Quote from Dr. Tománek:
"Nanotechnology is just a new word for the point of convergence between Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Engineering. Following decade long developments in these research areas, scientists begin not only to understand the intricate self-assembly processes in Nature, but for the first time are called to participate in the work of Creation on this fundamental level."
