SPRING, 2012<\/p>\n
Susan D’Amato, <\/strong>along with four physics students, attended the Southeastern Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics in January at the University of Tennessee. Students Evdokiya Kostadinova and Anna Sheppard presented a poster at the undergraduate poster session. Kristina Pardo and Victoria Strait also attended. Highlights of the conference included scientific talks by women physicists; panel discussions focusing on undergraduate research opportunities, graduate school, and careers in physics; a full-day tour at Oak Ridge National Laboratory; and a keynote speech by Persis Drell, director of SLAC (Stanford Linear Accelerator Center). Dake Wang and Nicholas Reynolds \u201911 published their second co-authored article, \u201cPhotoluminescence of Zinc Oxide Nanowires: The Effect of Surface Band Bending,\u201d in the journal ISRN Condensed Matter Physics<\/em>. Reynolds will be pursuing advanced study in physics at Iowa State University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Susan D’Amato, <\/strong>along with four physics students, attended the Southeastern Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics in January at the University of Tennessee.
