IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) and IEEE Young Professionals (YP) Miami Section Affinity Groups are going to host a Technical Event titled “Nanotechnology Contemporaries” on May 18th at 3.00 PM (EST). We are delighted to have Dr. Daniala Radu as our speaker. She is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Florida International University (FIU). Her background covers a broad range of disciplines, and she is combining materials science with chemistry and nanotechnology to synthesize novel materials with properties that enable their application in renewable energy. Radu holds a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Iowa State University and has further completed a three-year postdoctoral fellowship at Scripps California. Prior to her academic appointments she has been a senior scientist at DuPont where she developed a novel technology for thin-film PV using earth abundant materials. Dr. Radu authored over thirty journal articles, more than 30 conference presentations, and has five granted patents. Her research is funded by NASA, DoD, NSF, and USDA.
