Professor
Munir Husein Nayfeh is a Palestinian-American
particle physicist, renowned for his pioneering work in nanotechnology. Nayfeh was born in December 1945, in the village of Shweikeh near Tulkarem, in the West Bank. Due to the Israeli invasion, Nayfeh was forced to continue his post elementary studies in Jordan, where he received his
Thanaweyeh Ammeh (high school diploma). He received his
Bachelors degree in 1968, and his masters in physics in 1970 from the American University of Beirut, after which he won a scholarship to pursue his PhD at the University of Stanford in the USA, which he successfully completed in 1974.
Professor Nayfeh then went onto to work in
Oak Ridge National Laboratory from 1974–1977, then at
Yale University in 1977, finally joining the University if Illinois as a tenured professor in 1978. He has published over 130 papers, and several books, on Lasers, Electricity and Magnetism. His name appears on the "Whos' Who America", the "Who's Who in Technology Today", and the "Who's Who in Engineering" lists.
Nayfeh is most noted for his pioneering work in nanotechnology, and in 1977 answered the question that
Richard Feynman posited in 1959 "what would happen if man could manipulate individual atoms? and succeed in rearranging them within their chemical constituents?". Using cutting edge technology in Lasers, Nayfeh succeeded in manipulating individual atoms into the shape of a 'P' enclosed within a heart. This
ground breaking work revolutionised particle physics, and has enabled the advent of
electron microscopes and
nanotechnology.

He is a well known
Muslim intellectual, whose articles and columns are widely published. He is a proponent of social change regarding treatment of women in some Islamic societies, but identifies himself as both traditional as well as liberal. In a sense he is a traditional scholar when it comes to issues of faith, but a liberal on topics such as democracy in the Islamic world, the place of women in society and on pluralism.[

He advocates freedom of thought and independent thinking, and he states that it is the inability of Muslims to sustain a dialogue with time and text that sometimes makes Islamic teachings look anachronistic or even intolerant.
