- Andres Godoy, Martin Birnbach, and Mathew Maramo were recognized at the 2024 MSE Banquet at UConn! https://mse.engr.uconn.edu/mse-banquet-2024-honoring-achievement-and-community-spirit.php
- Dr. Jasna Jankovic has been named the 2024 Distinguished Engineering Educator Award at UConn! https://mse.engr.uconn.edu/jasna-jankovic-named-2024-distinguished-engineering-educator.php
- Dr. Jasna Jankovic has recently received two grants with the DOE. One grant is led by Plug Power and the other is led by Mott Corporation and she will be UConn’s PI on both.
JJ’s Group visited MIT on 3/15 where they connected with Yang Shao-Horn’s team. They presented some of their current research and connected with other students and faculty in the discipline. They were able to tour their labs and engage in a scientific exchange, expanding in collaboration.
Andres Godoy published his article ” Understanding the Effects of Heat Treatment Temperature and Atmosphere on Platinum Nanoparticle Sintering Processes on Different Engineered Catalyst Supports (ECS) for Fuel Cell Applications” in the newest issue of ACS Applied Energy Materials and had his TEM images featured on the ACS Cover. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsaem.3c02196
Dr. Jasna Jankovic has been awarded the NSF CAREER award for the project titled: “CAREER: Understanding degradation mechanisms in sustainable energy electrochemical systems using advanced characterization approaches.” Award period: 09/01/2021 – 08/31/26.-
Dr. Jasna Jankovic – Our STEAM Tree project was featured as part of the National Science Foundation-sponsored Convergence Accelerator Conference for Food Security in Extreme Environments and Food Deserts on 19-21 May 2021. Check out our “Lightning Talk”, Video, and UConn’s STEAM Team: Solar Trees and the Power of Community.
- Dr. Jankovic’s students did a fantastic job presenting at the (virtual) World Fuel Cell Conference in Montreal.
