For recent graduate Jenny Jiahui Wu, her time at ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder has been one of cutting-edge research and discovery. Learn about her path to grad school in Boulder, her research at NIST through ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ PREP, and what's in store for her next.
Congratulations to our Fall 2024 ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ PREP Graduates!Angelina Harke-Hosemann – Ph.D. in Astrophysical & Planetary ScienceAméya Ramadurgakar – Ph.D. in Electrical EngineeringJenny Wu – Ph.D. Physics
Here are some of the latest research publications featuring the work of PREP students!
Congratulations to our Summer 2024 ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ PREP Graduate!Hannah Knaack - Ph.D. in Physics
A ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder-led research team—including ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ PREP Postdoctoral Associate Thomas Kolibaba and former PREP Research Associate Jason Killgore—has created a new biomaterial that is both strong and flexible, and can be 3D printed for custom
¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder and PREP alum John "Ben" Mates' (PhDPhys'11) dissertation is now a hot topic and "required reading for many scientists interested in multiplexing." Mates completed his PhD while conducting research at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) through ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ's Professional Research Experience Program (¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ PREP).
The ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ PREP Office (DUAN D1B37) is undergoing major renovations starting May 27, 2024. Here's where you can find staff from the affected offices.
NIST Boulder Campus (Image credit: R. Jacobson/NIST) Three ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder Professional Research Experience Program (PREP) researchers were recently recognized along with their research groups at NIST for their outstanding scientific achievements. “
A team of NIST scientists including PREP researchers Ryan Snodgrass and Vincent Kotsubo have dramatically reduced the time and energy required to chill materials to temperatures near absolute zero. Their prototype refrigerator could prove a boon for the burgeoning quantum industry, which widely uses ultracold materials.
Bryce Primavera's experience in ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ PREP was instrumental in preparing him for his future career. Learn more about his journey, his research focus at NIST, and advice for future PREP students.
