Ken Livi, Associate Research Scientist and Director of Operations at the Materials Characterization and Processing Facility, was part of a team that proved that there is coal dust in the air in Curtis Bay, a Baltimore community that sits adjacent to an open-air coal terminal. Livi used a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to see the coal dust particles, aligning with longstanding community concerns about air quality in the area. Read more: https://zurl.co/Rh0r
关于我们
Materials scientists seek to understand the connections between the structure of materials and their properties, how particular properties can be achieved through suitable processing, and the applications of materials to modern technologies. The Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University is highly interdisciplinary, bringing together students and faculty with diverse interests to address urgent technological needs. Particular areas of strength include biomaterials, nanomaterials, organic semiconductors, metallic glasses, materials characterization, and thin films.

While experimenting with transistors, Professor Howard Katz and graduate student Riley Bond made a surprising discovery — the tiny computer switches exhibit an ability to remember, becoming a memristor. These devices can potentially change how memory works in electronics. Read about their findings here: https://zurl.co/pq0o

Reminder: ROSEI is hosting two webinars about opportunities to conduct PhD research in sustainable energy related fields at Johns Hopkins University this week! The seminars are happening on Wednesday (Nov. 6) at 8 PM ET and Thursday (Nov. 7) at 12 PM ET (noon). The agenda for both webinars includes an overview of ROSEI, funding support opportunities at Hopkins, and networking with a variety of ROSEI-affiliated faculty members, including Paulette Clancy, Ján Drgoňa, Uzi (Yury) Dvorkin, Regina García-Méndez, Dennice Gayme, Sijia Geng, Daniel Kammen, Magdalena Klemun, Enrique Mallada, Mitra Taheri, Susanna Thon, and Chao Wang. Please forward along to any students who might be interested in attending, and follow the links below to register for either webinar! #HopkinsEnergy Nov. 6: https://lnkd.in/eqZNN45r Nov. 7: https://lnkd.in/eid7xD_x

Gene therapies are promising, but transfection—the process by which nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) are inserted into cells— can be inefficient and costly. Now Prof Hai-Quan Mao, director of the Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology, finds that adjusting the viscosity of cell culture media to better match blood and interstitial fluid reveals "Goldilocks Zones" for different carriers where transfection can be improved 2x - 60x. “Tuning extracellular fluid viscosity to enhance transfection efficiency” appears in Nature Chemical Engineering. Read more: https://lnkd.in/dbS2vkJr The approach could be integrated into manufacturing processes to produce more (and more affordable) treatments with the same resources. It can also improve the accuracy of preclinical studies and get more gene therapies on the market faster.

A team of materials scientists innovated a machine learning tool that processes and categorizes atomic changes as they occur, which can accelerate the development of new materials. The team used the Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) to create these images of the Johns Hopkins logo and aims to use the new method in the TEM to observe real-time changes in the material. https://zurl.co/Btu5
