Luis Ortuno Macias and Pedro Bertolini worked with Professor Binhua Lin, Dr. Wei Bu, and Dr. Mrinal Bera. Both are third-year PhD students from the Department of Chemical Engineering at City College of New York, working with Charles Maldarelli. The third student,...
After a hiatus of two years due to the pandemic, we have welcomed FaSTRAC and GSRAC recipients on-site this summer. Assistant Professor Natalia Gonzalez-Pech and her student, Nicholas Figueroa, from Department of Chemistry in Hope College will be hosted by Professor...
Due to COVID-19 pandemic, we were unable to run this program onsite at ChemMatCARS this year. Fortunately, one of the recipients of GSRAC, Carmen Chen, a doctoral student from Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology (GIT)...
Damola Shuaib and Abhishek Ravada were the recipients of the 2019 Graduate Student Research Award at ChemMatCARS. In six weeks of learning side by side, the two very different men—one a passionate chemist from his earliest studies, the other an equally passionate...
Originally from Nigeria, Shuaib has known all his life that he wanted to do something chemistry-related. It took a while, though, to find the right chemical niche. Chemical engineering looked right at first, then he explored industrial chemistry and then materials...
A passionate metallurgist, Abhishek Ravada hopes to make his mark by improving the heat resistance—and thus disaster resistance—of steels. But his conversations and experiments at ChemMatCARS have convinced him to look up from traditional metallurgy to a broader range...
