Session chairs on atomic scale devices and computational nanotechnology each selected him to present work on single atom transistor structures and knowledge transfer using nanoHUB.org, a science and engineering gateway for the nanotechnology community.

Purdue University is participating in an international effort led by Drexel University to create robots that could respond to disasters, including those involving radioactive or bio-contamination hazards.

The paper, published in Applied Physics Letters, is titled “The Origin of Broad Distribution of Breakdown Times in Polycrystalline Thin Film Dielectrics”. His work is supervised by Prof. Muhammad Ashraful Alam.

The medal is in recognition of significant contributions to the development of nanosciences and nanotechnologies.

The Purdue University Board of Trustees on Friday (Oct. 12) ratified a named leadership position for the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. V. "Ragu" Balakrishnan, the current head, was confirmed as the first Michael and Katherine Birck Head of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

People can let their fingers - and hands - do the talking with a new touch-activated system that projects onto walls and other surfaces and allows users to interact with their environment and each other.

He joined the faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University in 1955, becoming a full professor in 1962 and retiring in 2000 as Professor Emeritus.

Ashley's summer research project was judged to be best among eight undergraduate finalists drawn from around 300 entrants from around the nation. Her work was entitled: "Predicting Axonal Injury and Repair in the Brain Post Trauma: A Pairing of Finite Element Methods with In Vivo Imaging Techniques"

His research project, "Becoming Boundary Spanners: Investigating, Enhancing, and Assessing the Experiences of Early Career Engineers," provides an integrative vision for engineering education and practice based on boundary spanning as a core meta-attribute for 21st-century engineers.

His paper was titled "Reducing the Temperature Coefficients of Silicon and Amorphous Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells." His advisor is Professor Jeff Gray.
