Two of our undergraduate students received CISE grants to pursue summer research in our lab. From development of new teaching labs to 3D design, we are proud of our undergraduate students and the diverse contributions they bring! “Development of Instrumentation and a Teaching Lab for Microwave Spectroscopy” Madeline Kidder, UG […]
Randi presented Updates to the chirped pulse instrumentation Cadence presented cis-3MS work Thushitha presented trans-3MS work at ISMS
Dr. Ranil Gurusinghe presented our group’s new instrumentation for an internal series of presentations given by select faculty at TN Tech!
Cadence presented on their involvement and progress in the 3-methylstyrene work and Marton presented on his creation of a python code to control our Cavity setup. Congrats to the both of them for completing distinction in research!
Congratulations to Cadence for receiving the ACS Physical Chemistry Student Award, Distinction in Research, and graduating with an ACS certified degree!
