IMG Member Woosol Lee was awarded the 2023 ECE Research Excellence Award! This award is given annually to the top ECE graduate student who has excelled in their research throughout the academic year. It was announced on Monday, April 24th, at the IEEE/HKN/WECE Awards Banquet. Congratulations, Woosol!
Congratulations to IMG Members Suhas Tamvada and Dr. Saeed Moghaddam on their recent publication in Applied Thermal Engineering! Titled “Data Center energy efficiency enhancement potential of a membrane-assisted phase-change heat sink”, This work demonstrates a new cooling technology which can help decarbonize Data Centers by efficiently cooling electronic chips.
IMG Member Ladan Jiracek recently presented his work with Dr. Jack Judy at the NanoFlorida conference on March 4-5! His presentation was titled, “Thinned Liquid Crystal Polymer for Tissue Engineered Electric Neural Interfaces (TEENI)”. Thank you for representing IMG so well!
Congratulations to IMG Member Suhas Tamvada and Dr. Saeed Moghaddam on their recent major discovery in nucleate boiling science! As featured on the UF MAE homepage, their research showed it is possible to overcome the limit of hydrodynamic instability to establish a flow condition in which the evaporation momentum limit is the ultimate limit.
Our second featured member for Women's History Month is Cameron Anderson! An Oakland, NJ native, Cameron joined IMG in the fall of 2020. While working at an energy access startup, she decided to pursue her PhD to enable a career change. Her research focuses on screen-printed flexible electronics, specifically sensors for wearable devices. Cameron is keeping her post-graduation options open, but currently plans to go to industry and continue working with flexible electronics.
To celebrate Women’s History Month, we want to highlight the very talented female members of IMG, starting with Hae-In Kim! Originally from South Korea, Hae-In joined IMG back in 2018 and was motivated by her interest in radio frequency (RF) devices to pursue her PhD. Her research focuses on investigating the use of metaconductors to minimize conductor loss in certain RF devices. On top of her scientific work, Hae-In also has a passion for promoting diversity and inclusion in STEM through her involvement with IEEE Women in Engineering.
Woosol Lee will present his dissertation defense on March 10th 8:30 AM, the topic will be "High efficiency wireless power transfer using advanced metamaterial and metaconductor"

Congratulations to IMG Member Aftab Bhanvadia and Dr. Toshikazu Nishida on their recent journal publication, “3D printing of hollow geometries using blocking liquid substitution stereolithography” in Scientific Reports! This work improves freedom over the 3D printing process by using UV blocking liquids in hollow geometries. Read more about it here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-26684-z
Congratulations to IMG member Minh-Chau Le on being awarded the UF Health Cancer Center (UFHCC) Predoctoral Award! The annual UFHCC Predoctoral Awards are intended to recognize and support outstanding predoctoral candidates who are conducting innovative cancer research. Under Dr. Hugh Fan’s mentorship, Minh-Chau is conducting her dissertation work titled: “Microfluidic Platforms for the Detection of Rare Cells in Sarcomas and Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.”
