  • Ryan Cole
    Ryan Cole's research helps to develop laser-based sensors for systems ranging from combustion devices to the atmosphere. His personal research is focused on developing and improving models for the absorption of light by gasses at very high pressures and temperatures. He would like to work in atmospheric science applying the skills he has learned at CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ to develop new ways to monitor pollution and emissions and their effect on the atmosphere. 
  • adrienne scott
    Adrienne is a fourth-year PhD student who explores how cells in the human body sense and respond to their mechanical environment and uses this information to better design tissue engineering techniques.
