UMBC physicist Can Ataca developing quicker, cheaper way to create novel, one-atom-thick materials

/ 4 minutes of reading

“We can predict a material’s properties before experimentalists can even synthesize it,” says Can Ataca. The new methods his lab is developing will make those predictions many times more accurate, supporting other scientists in their efforts to develop materials for applications from solar cells to gas masks.

UMBC’s Rachel Brewster investigates cellular survival to improve the preservation of organs for transplant

/ 5 minutes of reading

Following clue after clue, Brewster’s lab is on a mission to enable new methods that would allow organs to last longer and travel farther to those in need. NIH has rewarded the lab’s noteworthy progress toward that end with a $400,000, two-year Exploratory Research Award to continue the work.

UMBC’s 40th Graduate Research Conference to focus on communication and collaboration

/ 4 minutes of reading

“GRC gives graduate students training on how to ace professional conferences in the field, and by participating, students practice how to communicate their research in an accessible way,” says Morgan Bunting, a gerontology Ph.D. student and member of the GRC planning committee. “It’s also just a wonderful way to engage the community and learn what amazing work is going on in the Graduate School.” Continue Reading UMBC’s 40th Graduate Research Conference to focus on communication and collaboration
