My interest in the CEINT REU program was first peaked last summer while working as a research assistant at the CEINT mesocosms. I find it incredibly exciting to be able to contribute towards research on a topic at the cutting edge of science. I am a Mechanical Engineering major pursuing a certificate in Energy and the Environment at Duke University and as such I am interested in both the range of uses for nanomaterials and their environmental impacts.
