Alexandra "Zan" Paterson, assistant professor with joint appointments in materials engineering and electrical engineering, recently co-authored, "Improved organic electrochemical transistor stability using solvent degassing and chemical doping," published in Nature Electronics, a monthly online journal from Nature that publishes original research in the field of electronics. Abstract:
Thirteen University of Kentucky undergraduate researchers will present their work at the 23rd annual Posters-at-the-Capitol on March 6, including Asa O'Neal, senior mechanical engineering and physics major. The event will feature research topics including community health, agricultural sustainability, renewable energy and public health and safety.
As electronic waste (e-waste) piles up globally, researchers at the University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment and the Stanley and Karen Pigman College of Engineering are spearheading innovative methods to recover valuable metals from discarded devices and industrial waste.
Student spotlight, Lauren Kargas with a major in Biosystems Engineering.
