April 24 | Seminar – Dr. Michele Terzano: Phenomenological modelling of soft biomaterials – The fundamental link between theory and experiment
In this seminar, Dr. Michele highlights the importance of linking theoretical modelling to experimental design, showing applications from our latest research on polymeric scaffolds and brain-mimicking hydrogels.
May 15 | Dr. Shantanu Jathar – Studying the Emissions and Chemistry of Fire Aerosols: From Pyrolysis to Photochemical Reactors and Pile Burns to Plumes
Fires — including wildland, prescribed, agricultural, and increasingly, wildland-urban interface (WUI) fires — are significant sources of aerosols (fine particles) and its precursors to the atmosphere. Distinguished Colloquium speaker Dr. Shantanu Jathar (CSU) explores fire aerosols and their atmospheric evolution across different spatial and temporal scales. He shares work from laboratory, field, and modeling studies […]
