Dr. Enrique Jackson from NASA-Marshall Space Center will present a seminar entitled, “Development of Thermal Properties of Carbon-Nanotube Polymer Composition.” Abstract The overall goal of this effort is to develop enhanced thermal properties in carbon nanotube-polymer composites that can replace traditional aerospace metallic materials to reduce the weight in space structures. In this work, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were dispersed onto a prepreg composite structure used to provide favorable thermal storage properties. The carbon nanotubes increased the thermal transport properties of [...]

Dr. Nick Fitzkee, assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry, from Mississippi State University will present a seminar titled, Developing a Molecular Understanding Gold Nanoparticle-Protein Interactions. Abstract When exposed to a solution containing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), proteins spontaneously bind to the nanoparticle surface, leading to the formation of a stable surface coating, or biocorona. The composition of this biocorona in biological fluids depends on various factors, and it is currently impossible to predict whether an adsorbed protein will retain its function [...]
