Description:

Fibrous protein finding may lead to improved bioprinting, tissue engineering Fibrous protein finding may lead to improved bioprinting, tissue engineering Penn State is cautiously reopening its research labs and MRI is inviting industry and other universities who may not have reopened to make use of our Nanofabrication Facility, our Materials Characterization Laboratory, and the Materials Computation Center.Please visit our website for information regarding these laboratories' capabilities and for contact information for the appropriate expert staff. For further information on MRI's and Penn State's response to the COVID-19 crisis.  Read full details here →ATTENTION:Per the Department of the State, the arrival of all visitors, visiting scholars, and post-docs who were expected to arrive prior to August 1, 2020 will be asked to reschedule their visits until further notice. Machine sucks up tiny tissue spheroids and prints them precisely Nov 19 2020 A new method of bioprinting uses aspiration of tiny biologics such as spheroids, cells and tissue strands, to precisely place them in 3D patterns either on scaffolding or without to create artificial tissues with natural properties, according to Penn State researchers. Novel cellulose finding may lead to new chemicals, biofuels Nov 18 2020 By Jamie OberdickA multi-institutional research group led by two Penn State faculty members has identified, for the first time, how cellulose crystals orient themselves relative to the cell wall in plants, with potential implications for chemical and energy development.   Imitating the brain to make computers more efficient Nov 6 2020 By Gabrielle StewartComputers can perform operations much faster than the human brain and store more information. Despite these disadvantages, the human brain is a more efficient computer than the most sophisticated supercomputers — by a factor of a million, according to Saptarshi Das, assistant professor of engineering science and mechanics at Penn State. From anywhere, from any device, visit some of our labs virtually. Walk through the Nanofab Lab, the MCL X-ray Diffraction Lab, and the NanoSEM Lab.Convergence at the intersection of Materials – Life – Health – Environment and combinations of the above themesGrant limit $40,000, at least two co-PIs required.  Collaboration among Co-PIs with affiliations in MRI, IEE, Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences, and Hershey Penn State College of Medicine are encouraged.See details here Jan 12 2021 Millennium Cafe will return in January 2021 Check back soon for the details of our next Millennium Café talk! SENSORS: We are living in a world where sensors are ubiquitous and growing exponentially. The much talked about internet of things (IoT), in which sensors talk to humans and to other machines, is based on millions, even billions of different types of reliable and cost-effective sensors.At Penn State, sensor research is in a kind of renaissance. In fact, this is the first Focus on Materials to have a theme issue on sensors in 15 years.To receive a FREE printed issue, subscribe to "Printed Materials" and add/update your mailing address.View the ONLINE ISSUE HERE A Culture of Interdisciplinary ResearchPenn State’s investment in its interdisciplinary research institutes, including the Materials Research Institute (MRI), has created a culture of strong collaborations across disciplines. At Penn State, many researchers have the support of both their academic departments and the university-wide institutes, such as MRI. By encouraging crosscutting research, MRI and its sister institutes open up traditional silos of knowledge to the stimulus of other viewpoints and new ideas. This mingling of disciplines, often called “convergence,” brings together the physical and life sciences with engineering and computation to solve the most complex problems facing society today and in the future.Request a Tour of the MSC Materials Characterization Lab The Materials Characterization Lab (MCL) is a fully-staffed, open access, analytical research facility charged with enabling research and educating the next generation of highly qualified researchers. Nanofabrication Lab Our staff scientists and engineers will enable users to transition fundamental research in nanomaterials to innovation-driven multicomponent integrated devices and systems. Every organization has different priorities and resources. Directors of the MRI facilities recognize this and help your company leverage our labs in various ways.Find out more...
