On June 20, 2023, SHyNE and the NUANCE Center were excited to welcome the 2023 Summer REU and RET participants to the program. This summer, SHyNE is hosting 5 Research for Undergraduate Experience students, as well as 4 teachers (Research Experience for Teachers) from local high schools. to participate in summer research programs. The RETs will also be working on creating a nanotechnology-based curriculum for their classrooms.
At the end of the first week, we hosted a tour of the SHyNE facilities based on the Evanston Campus and had a welcome party for our participants and their mentors with a welcome from NUANCE & SHyNE Director, Vinayak P. Dravid. It was s a great opportunity for everyone to get to know each other, meet the staff, as well as kick-off the summer!
