Chris Richardson, assistant professor of physics at Â鶹ÊÓƵ, and a collaborator at UNC will receive the equivalent of $10,000 in computational resources from a National Science Foundation-funded program.

Pranab Das and Daniel Blair '97 will co-host an advanced summer school for graduate students and a research working group at Georgetown next week.

The university's top award comes with $15,000 to support and celebrate academic and creative achievements.

The research focuses on the use of magnetic forces to move polymer composites embedded with magnetic particles and could have practical application in medical diagnostic devices.
