. Often these advance rely on the synthesis of highly precise materials and the integration of different materials into functional optoelectronic devices and systems. IMOD is developing new classes of optoelectronic materials, devices, and systems with research projects in a broad range of disciplines that REU students can choose from, including the areas of chemistry, physics, materials science & engineering, and electrical & computer engineering. Applications for this opportunity will open on

lanthanides. Target synthesis and fabrication, including thin films and nanowires. Target characterization using techniques including: SEM, TEM, EDS, and ICP-MS. Designing and executing experiments to optimize unit process steps, device structures, process integration, and automation of the isotope production technology. Analyses and interpreting of experimental data and development of predictive computer models. Qualifications: Candidates should currently be pursuing or recently have completed a

of bioplastics and biocomposites. The students will gain hands-on experience with synthesis, processing, and characterization of biobased plastics and composite materials. The REU program will continue for 3 years, i.e. Summer ’17, Summer ’18, and Summer ’19. Each year, 10 students (recruited primarily from academic institutions where research programs in STEM are limited) will work on research conducted by the CB2, with 5 students conducting their research at Washington State University and 5

experimental and computational researchers, drawing on UNT’s world-class resources in both instrumentation and high-performance computing. Possible research areas include: Light-Harvesting Organic/Metal-Organic Materials * Computational Catalyst Design * Transition Metal Catalysis for Organic Synthesis * Electrochemical Characterization of Semiconductor Materials * Porous Materials for Environmental Remediation * Gas-Sensing Materials * Pharmacological Modeling of Illicit Substances * Organometallic

development of the Group of Uniform Materials Based on Organic Salts (GUMBOS) with broad applications in nanotechnology and medicine. Rendy Kartika applies novel organic reactions to the synthesis of complex molecules of biological and pharmaceutical importance, Graça Vicente uses BODIPY dyes for biophysical and bioanalytical applications and the development of new agents for the photodynamic treatment of cancer, and Mario Rivera is engaged in areas as diverse as iron homeostasis in pathogenic bacteria

best it provides a false sense of security. One way to discourage cheating is to design assessments that are unique and authentic, requiring higher order thinking skills like synthesis, analysis, or the creation of original content. For written work, Turnitin’s Originality Check (via Sakai Assignments) is a popular tool to discourage plagiarism and cheating. An option for multiple choice assessments is to use “question pools” where assessment questions are drawn randomly from a large pool of

materials that could transport charge and ions to be used on biosensors and be more easily integrated into biological systems, unlike other semiconductors or batteries. Did you appreciate the research experience? Working on my own project in the first lab forced me to learn to take accountability and engage with chemistry on my own. Last year, however, Dr. Waldow was very involved, but I was doing my own thing and diving past polymers into synthesis, which was super fun and challenging. To me, research
