Grad students win major awards

In early November 2021, Jiwoong Kang, Eli Rotman, and Geordie Lindemann participated in the inaugural MMRI poster session, chaired by Prof. Shahani himself. Geordie (left) won the second place award for his poster titled, “Complexity and evolution of a three-phase eutectic pattern uncovered by 4D X-ray nano-tomography.” A few days later, Paul Chao and Xinyi Zhou took part in the Engineering Research Symposium. For his work on “Pseudo-4D characterization of growth and form of Al-Al2Cu eutectic colonies,” Paul (right) took home two awards: first place in the scientific visualization competition and second place in the graduate advanced research poster competition. Congratulations to all! Well done!
