Allan MacDonald, professor and Sid W. Richardson Foundation Regents Chair in Physics, is the recipient of the 2024 Hill Prize in Physical Sciences from the Texas Academy of Medicine, Engineering, Science and Technology
Dr. Delia Milliron is awarded the MRS Medal for the development of optically tunable metal oxide nanomaterials for applications such as energy-saving electrochromic windows.
Moumita Das received APS Fellow for fundamental mechanistic insights into the collective properties and rigidity transitions in multi-component biological and bio-inspired soft materials, and for contributions to building an inclusive and diverse soft matter community.
Awarded at the beginning of the summer, the National Science Foundation gave $18 million in funding to the Center for Dynamics and Control of Materials at UT, one of 20 Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers across the country.
The Center for Dynamics and Control of Materials at The University of Texas at Austin has been on the leading edge of materials development for the past six years. With a fresh infusion of funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the center will turn its attention to new research thrusts that will bring to life materials with enhanced properties and capabilities.
A technological leap sits on the horizon, with exciting capabilities like quantum computing, soft robotics and more coming down the pike. To bring these ideas to reality will require engineering new classes of materials that make up their building blocks.
