👏 Great job on this video, Andrew, and superb advancement of the program, Valarie Hall Preddy! I am thrilled to see some of my outreach and ice cream social photos made the cut! 📸 They were my favorite shots from summer events. It reminds me how important it is for the entire lab to work as a team. Preddy conceptualizes the program to meet the needs of college students from across the nation while also matching the needs of lab mentors with that of the Workforce Development for Teachers & Scientists. The highly successful program planning begins as soon as the current session closes. Preddy utilizes past and current statistics and feedback to build upon for the next application period. Selecting students from a pool of hundreds to match with lab mentors is no small task. Sifting through the needs of seasoned staff to pair with the skillsets of up and coming STEM professionals is just part of her role. She also coordinates the activities in which the interns participate outside of traditional lab tasks including professional development opportunities, networking events and community outreach. Every advancement for the internship program is an advancement for the lab, the Office of Science, the Innovation and University Engagement department, and a tip of the hat to Preddy for a successful season. It’s an honor to work with Valarie to see what she conceives next and the interns to match their energy. College interns never cease to impress with projects such as this… 🎥 Best of luck, Andrew. Summer 2024 was a perfect springboard to build an even stronger class for 2025. 👏 For those interested in national lab or DOE internships, visit their websites and/or LinkedIn profiles. #summerinternships https://lnkd.in/eP72uh4Y

Putting to use the unique capabilities at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Abagail Carson, a chemical engineering major at Georgia Institute of Technology, has worked to better understand the recrystallization behaviors of various materials in temperatures near -80 degrees Celsius (-112 Fahrenheit). Carson, a physical science student working at the ERDC Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) over the summer, applied the splat assay to investigate how materials recrystallized in frigid conditions. The assay involves dropping one microliter of material onto a glass cooled to -80 degrees Celsius. The material, once splatted, spreads out evenly, yielding a single layer of crystals. The development of these crystals is then captured on a light microscope over a 30-minute period to quantify crystal growth. The materials tested, which ranged from simple salts to complex polymers to antifreeze proteins, provided varying results ranging from small non-evolving to large crystalline architectures, offering insight into the materials’ ice adhesion characteristics. Carson’s research was conducted as part of CRREL’s Force Protection and Sustainment Branch, working under Emily Asenath-Smith, PhD and the Advanced Materials Team. She was one of several students who joined CRREL in recent months, and part of a much larger group of students who provided valuable support to research efforts across each of ERDC’s world-class laboratories. When coupled with other data developed by the Advanced Materials Team, these splat assay results help build a foundation for future development of ice-phobic and ice-philic materials. #crystallization #materials #minerals #crystals #ice #arctic #georgiatech #antifreeze #polymers #ice #sustainment #internships #education #military #army #science #innovation #technology #engineer #engineering #chemical #chemistry #chemicalengineering #research #researchanddevelopment #PowerofERDC

I'm happy to share that I've recently completed an enriching internship at the National Atmospheric Research Laboratory. Over the past few months, I've had the privilege to explore the Direction-of-Arrival (DOA) Estimation for Lightning Signals using Interferometry. While at NARL, I've worked on the complexities of signal processing and atmospheric sciences. Focusing on lightning signals has broadened my understanding of this natural phenomenon and equipped me with invaluable data analysis and interpretation skills. One of the most rewarding aspects of my internship was the meeting people with challenging research projects within atmospheric sciences. Each project presented unique challenges and learning opportunities, from studying the Martian ionosphere to investigating cloud bursts. Meeting passionate researchers has expanded my knowledge base and fueled my curiosity to explore further in this dynamic field. I'm incredibly grateful for the hands-on experience and mentorship I received at NARL. It has been a journey of growth and discovery, allowing me to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios and develop practical solutions. Reflecting on my internship experience, I'm filled with a sense of accomplishment and excitement for the future. I look forward to apply the skills and insights gained at NARL to contribute meaningfully to the field of atmospheric sciences and related fields. I'm eager to connect with fellow professionals who share a passion for research and innovation in atmospheric phenomena and Signal Processing.  #AtmosphericSciences #InternshipExperience #SignalProcessing #Research #Lightning #ProfessionalDevelopment
