In this workshop, teachers and lecturers are invited to discuss resources around promoting engagement in lecture-style courses. We will demonstrate several activities in chemistry, physics, and earth science that can be easily done in any sized classroom to help students conceptualize big ideas. Presenter: Brandon Rodriguez Register here.
On Thursday, September 8 and Friday, September 9, 2022, from 12PM to 3:30PM (EST), please join to discuss ideas surrounding semiconductor workforce development and academic infrastructure and to hear the speakers’ perspectives about trends in semiconductor R&D and advanced manufacturing. The two-day online workshop aims to examine how the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure can interact […]
Join us for an intensive 3-day workshop to prepare community college faculty to submit papers to peer-reviewed journals. This online workshop is led by Peter Kazarinoff, MNT-EC co-PI and faculty at Portland Community College. We will cover how peer-reviewed journals work, as well as how to write, submit, review, edit and publish in peer-reviewed journals to advance in your career. Stipends available for qualified faculty.Â
Getting good SEM/FESEM images is dependent on both the sample conditions (conductivity, bulk vs. thin film, etc) and the instrument’s imaging parameters (e.g., beam voltage, beam current, working distance, detector, etc). Over the course of training and interacting with hundreds of different FESEM users Dr. Liu has observed the most important things a new user […]
Funding for the CHIPS Act has been signed into law, providing tremendous opportunities for semiconductor industry organizations to expand production in the U.S. Although additional guidance from the Departments of Defense and Commerce is required around the specific application form and process, it’s critical for organizations to understand the programs, if their organization qualifies, and […]
Zoom in on microscopy and its connections to chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering using hands-on virtual research tools! This session will offer an overview about nanoscience and how microscopy tools such as scanning electron microscopes (SEM) can be brought directly into your classes remotely. Dr. Zac Gray of the NSF-supported Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge (NACK) Network will […]
Fully synthetic oligonucleotides are critical in nearly all disciplines of modern biology and precision medicine. Synthetic Biology, cell-free DNA (cfDNA) diagnostics, mRNA vaccines, interference RNA cancer therapeutics, self-amplifying saRNA. Access to abundant, high quality synthetic DNA and RNA at gram scales overnight could be a game changer for the future of healthcare and personalized medicine […]
Speaker: Dr. Huanyu Cheng Date: November 16, 2022 at 1 pm ET Abstract: Conventional electronics today form on the planar surfaces of brittle wafer substrates and are not compatible with 3D deformable surfaces. As a result, stretchable electronic devices have been developed for continuous health monitoring. Practical applications of the next-generation stretchable electronics hinge on […]
Zooming in over Zoom! Learn how to use a scanning electron microscope remotely from your classroom’s computer Description: In the last NanoEducators forum, participants had the opportunity to zoom in on microscopy and its connections to chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering using hands-on virtual research tools. The first session of this series offered an overview […]
