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!
The aim of this project is to utilize the controllable nature of Graphene Oxide as an ultrathin separation membrane in biological applications, specifically targetting removal of uremic toxins.
Congratulations to all of this year's IMG Award recipients, and a special thanks to all those who have contributed to our group. This year's kick-off meeting focused on the future of our group, and making it evident that "our most valuable asset is you". Let us continue working as a team and setting a precedent for research groups all around.
The IMG Awards recognize outstanding achievements and contributions of student members in our organization. The research award honors the exceptional academic impact the students have made in their field, and the service award acknowledges the hard work the students have put into improving and maintaining the quality of IMG.
The IMG faculty are pleased to release the IMG annual report for the calendar year 2017. This document is a record of the group activities, achievements and finances for the previous year. You are encouraged to refer to this document if needed.

With the Fall semester arriving, we will be having our IMG Kickoff Meeting on August 21, 2018 (day before classes start) from 11:45AM to 1:30PM. During this meeting, we'll discuss important IMG updates, introduce new members, recognize our accomplishments over the last year, and present some IMG awards. We may also try to take a group photo, so if you have a IMG polo or t-shirt, please wear it.
Please note, all IMG members are expected to attend this meeting. Pizza and drinks will be provided.
Dr. Moghaddam's Research group specializes in micro-scale heat transfer characterization for electronics cooling applications alongside absorption refrigeration systems. This group covers a wide range of projects involving system design/analysis for absorption refrigerators, characterization of microscale boiling phenomena, and design of membranes for health applications!
The IMG faculty are pleased to release the first IMG annual report for the calendar year 2016. This document is a record of the group activities, achievements and finances for the previous year. You are encouraged to refer to this document if needed.

The NSF Multi-functional Integrated System Technology Center (MIST Center) held it’s Kickoff Meeting on Dec. 11-12, 2014. Led by IMG faculty Dr. Nishida and Dr. Arnold, and in partnership with UCF, the mission of the MIST Center is to facilitate integration of novel materials, processes, devices, and circuits into multi-functional systems through research partnerships between university, industry, and government stakeholders. With inaugural membership from eight organizations, the MIST Center selected 8 projects (6 at UF and 2 at UCF) to be conducted during 2015. The UF projects are:
