Research and Science
Congratulations are in order for Sooraj Radhakrishnan, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow in the 抖M女仆 College of Arts and Sciences鈥 Department of Physics who performs research in experimental nuclear physics. His data analysis of some rare particles called 鈥渃harm quarks鈥 that may have existed in the first microsecond of the Big Bang, the emerging point of our universe, was highlighted in a recent issue of the .
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has selected two 抖M女仆 College of Arts and Sciences faculty members, along with two community clinicians, for , an initiative that will provide funding and leadership training to the four team members. Their plan is to implement a project that will help veterinary professionals in Northeast Ohio address mental health stigmas they experience in their lives and provide usable techniques that can be incorporated into their veterinary practices.
Two 抖M女仆 students, in the College of Arts and Sciences, were among 62 students from 50 different U.S. universities recently selected for funding by the Department of Energy鈥檚 Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) Program.
Yingfei Jiang, a College of Arts and Science graduate student in the Chemical Physics program and the Advanced Materials and Liquid Crystal Institute at 抖M女仆, and his advisor Deng-Ke Yang, Ph.D., a professor in the Department of Physics, have invented the first ever dual-mode smart glass technology that can control both radiant energy flow (heat) and privacy through a tinted material.
Dr. Joseph D. Ortiz, a professor in the College of Arts and Sciences鈥 Department of Geology at 抖M女仆, was part of an international team of researchers that co-authored an article about a deadly tsunami that occurred about 1,000 years ago in Tanzania. The study suggests that the tsunami risk in East Africa could be higher than previously thought.
