IMG professor, Dr. Roozbeh Tabrizian, has been announced as the 2020-2023 Alan Hastings Faculty Fellow for his incredible work in the area of RF MEMS/NEMS resonators and transducers. Congratulations, and excellent work!
Today (4/23) Camilo Velez, a Ph.D. from Dr. Arnold's group and presently a post-doc at CMU is coming back to teach all of us three different COMSOL modules. The modules that will be covered through an example of Joule heating actuator are: ACDC, Heat Transfer and Structural Mechanics.
This is useful for COMSOL beginners and intermediate level people. Be ready with your questions.

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Professor Dr. Saeed Moghaddam has received a $1.89M grant from the United States Department of Energy to develop revolutionary cooling and heating systems here at the University of Florida. This new technology will lead to a future with more renewable energy sources! Click here for more details!
Congratulations to Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering doctoral student Austin Vera on winning the prestigious NDSEG fellowship! Austin began his career in IMG as an undergraduate in 2016 under Dr. Mark Sheplak and is currently working towards his PhD. His research interests include the development of aeroacoustic instrumentation with a focus on dynamic pressure sensing technology for harsh environments. Great job Austin!
Pablo Dopico will defend his Ph.D. dissertation entitled: "Gangliosides/Vimentin, Circulating Tumor Cells and Tumor DNA" on Thursday, April 16th, at 1:00 pm.
