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.
