The goal of these programs is to provide early stage students first hand experience with cutting-edge research in a range of departments, including Biology, Chemistry, Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, and more. These summer research experiences for undergraduate’s (REU)’s are ten-week research-immersion internship programs…
, function and dynamics of protein molecules that make use of the new and powerful free electron X-ray laser facilities around the world. A trip to Stanford’s facility in the fall to present the students’ work at the annual users’ meeting is also planned. Willingness to work on a team and in molecular studies is required. Majors from biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, or related engineering fields are encouraged to apply. Planetary Habitability REU: Students will explore the intersection of

The SURF program is designed to inspire undergraduate students to pursue careers in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) through a unique research experience that supports the NIST mission. Since 1993, SURF students from across the country have had the opportunity to gain valuable, hands-on…
parameters for high resolution printing at any length scale. The tasks of someone involved in this project would involve resin formulation, polymerization kinetic analysis, use of a laser scanning confocal microscope, 3D printing experiments, and scripting in Python. I think it would be a great experience and let students see a little bit of what life is like at a government lab. It will also result in one or more publications for any grad school/job applications in the future. Caleb Chandler is also

higher temperatures, and follows a negative linear relationship. Data will be presented on a representative cell, and the theory of the phenomenon will be presented. 3:00pm Cole Johnson – “Optical Entrapment of a Polystyrene Microsphere Using a DVD Laser” In this experiment, a DVD optical pickup drive is used to “grab” and isolate polystyrene microspheres (d ~ 10 micron) in a water solution. The consumer grade drive has been used in biomedical applications such as single cell isolation. A modified

William Davis ’06 is co-founder of FabLab Tacoma, a makerspace dedicated to project-based learning, entrepreneurship and tinkering.
, a laser cutter, AutoCAD software, computer-controlled sewing machines, woodworking and welding tools, virtual reality modules and more. One recent evening, students from the University of Washington Tacoma had the opportunity to test some of the tools. The title of the beginning engineering course was fitting: “How to Make Almost Anything.” Davis says that’s just what FabLab offers, the ability to let your imagination and creativity run wild (safely, of course). Every time makers come into the

Fully-funded Ph.D. positions are available in the Ferdowsi Research Laboratory within the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Houston. Positions are available with start date as early as Spring 2022 and Fall 2022. Some of our active research areas are experimental…
general research areas of the laboratory. There are also opportunities for collaboration with researchers and faculty at the National Center for Airborne Laser Mapping (NCALM), and that can connect modeling and laboratory-scale studies to the larger field-scale, geological-scale, and remote sensing observations. The interested candidates are encouraged to (i) apply directly to the Ph.D. programs in Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Houston, and (ii) fill out the application form

Why Study Physics?Physics is the scientific study of the material universe at its most fundamental level. A physicist might study the inner workings of atoms and nuclei, the size and age of the universe, the behavior of high-temperature superconductors, or the life cycles of stars, from their formation out of interstellar gases to their end-states as pulsars or black holes. Physicists use high-energy accelerators to search for quarks; they design new laser systems for applications in medicine

Each item, whether it’s jewelry or even paper made from elephant poop, have been placed with similar items throughout the store. “They’re so much to discover here,” Dopp said. “We’re so much more than a bookstore.” Throughout the year the bookstore also holds events from visiting author series to activities like crafts and story time. One very popular series the bookstore will be hosting throughout the year is Laser and Lance – featuring appearances by Sci-Fi and Fantasy authors. “We do
