Enhancing Undergraduate Research Experience Through a Food Science Research Project

Enhancing Students’ Learning Experience through Interdisciplinary Research

This paper describes an approach of enriching computer science & engineering education by engaging students in an interdisciplinary research project. The research project is put forth by a join interdisciplinary research group that consists of students and faculty members from College of Computer Science & Engineering and College of Nursing. One of the goals of this interdisciplinary collaborat...

Enhancing the research experience through peer-reviewed literature

Dear Editors, Your article “Clinical research 101:Why should you care?” [1] was very interesting and I applaud the journal, which in its infancy is addressing issues such as importance of clinical research. As you correctly mention, the emergency department (ED) is a clinical laboratory, and clinical research apart from answering some of the most pertinent questions has the additional value of ...

NDnano Summer Undergraduate Research 2016 Project Summary

My summer research has introduced me to the rewards and frustrations of working in a bioengineering lab. In Dr. Roeder’s lab, I studied the relationship between the physical and optical properties of a specific type of nanoparticles (NPs). Dr. Nallathamby taught me novel methods of synthesizing silica-gold core-shell NPs, and I gained experience in characterizing these nanoparticles. I learned ...
