Return of the GBM!

It’s fall, and our engineering student organizations and interest groups are back in full swing. Here’s a (not comprehensive) list of the upcoming meetings. As always, all organizations are open to all engineering students regardless of university affiliation. Check the Student Organization page for websites and contact information.

A new, biomass-based material developed by FAMU-FSU College of Engineering researchers can be used to repeatedly capture and release carbon dioxide.

The material is primarily made from lignin, an organic molecule that is a main component of wood and other plants, and it can take up carbon dioxide (CO2) from concentrated sources or directly from the air. The research was published by Advanced Materials.

Yan Li, a professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering in the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering was part of a team of Florida State University researchers giving oncologists another tool in their fight against pediatric brain cancer.

In work published in Bioactive Materials, the research team led by Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Professor Qing-Xiang “Amy” Sang showed the possibility of enhancing natural killer im

Assistant Professor Tristan Driscoll, a faculty researcher in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and Florida State University, has received a $1.8 million grant the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to unravel the complexities of how cells within the body sense and respond to directional forces.
