The U.S. Department of Energy awarded $7.4 million to 8 projects at 7 universities in 6 states to enhance nuclear energy infrastructure and instruction.
Ari Peskoe, Harvard Law School, discusses FERC's new rule to better coordinate the massive buildout of new electric transmission systems.
While studying mechanical engineering at the University of Texas in Austin, Paquette became interested in structural components and composite materials. Although he originally planned to pursue work in the aerospace industry, he jumped at the opportunity to work at Sandia on wind turbine blades—the largest composite structures in the world.
Researchers sometimes genetically engineer microorganisms—such as fungi—to convert renewable feedstock materials into useful biofuel or biochemical products. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which allows researchers to quickly amplify DNA sequences for analysis, is one of the most essential tools in this process. When working to synthesize biofuels using fungi, PCR is particularly important for evaluating various strains of mutated fungi.
