SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nicole Ray Art Exhibit: State of Play
DESCRIPTION:Dates: Saturday June 8 - Sunday August 25\n\nReception: Saturday June 8\, 2pm-4pm MBG West Lobby\n\nWhat is play? Who’s to say? The animals of these fields and woods\, streams and ponds surely know. They take time each day to adventure and roam\, scamper and scout. The plants and trees excitedly join in. Some bend and sway and some glisten in rain. Perhaps each invites their friends from away to come and show them new ways of play. Let’s have a look and spend the day imagining what happens when we look away. An exploration of encounters real and imagined by local artist\, Nicole Ray. \n\nBio\n\nNicole Ray is an artist and illustrator living in Brighton\, Michigan. She grew up in a small beach town in New York with her toes deep in the sand and her head buried in books. Nicole creates a whimsical line of art prints and paper goods under the name Sloe Gin Fizz.\n\nFrom quirky animal and vegetable characters to nostalgia-filled interiors and calming views of nature\, Nicole’s hand-drawn scenes are highly accessible\, infused with a playful sense of humor and a strong narrative quality. \n\nNicole holds a BFA in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts\, as well as a BA in History from Trinity College in Hartford\, CT. Nicole and her mister live in a log house on a lake just north of Ann Arbor with a spoiled border collie named Stella and an ever-expanding network of critter friends.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Reflections on Pivoting Research to Different Nuclear Technologies
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Markus Piro is currently an Associate Professor at McMaster University where he and his team are conducting research in nuclear fuels and materials for conventional and advanced reactors. Previously\, he was the Chair of the Energy and Nuclear Engineering Department and Canada Research Chair in Nuclear Fuels and Materials at Ontario Tech\, and was Section Head of Fuel Modelling at the Canadian Nuclear Laboratories. He earned a PhD in Nuclear Engineering from the Royal Military College of Canada and did a Post Doc at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In addition to research in academia\, he is the President of Piro Consulting\, a consulting firm supporting the nuclear industry primarily in fuel engineering and its impact on safety and licensing.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Leveraging Phase Transitions to Establish Structure-Property Relationships: The Story Of  Thermal Transport by Chemical Bonds
DESCRIPTION:Thermal transport in solid materials plays a crucial role in every modern application\, ranging from batteries to nuclear technology. In semiconductors\, both mobile electrons and lattice vibrations quantifiably contribute to heat transport. In these materials\, several engineering principles are known and largely used to tune heat conduction\, like nano-structuring\, doping\, etc. However\, the interplay of crystal structure\, symmetry and chemical bonding on thermal conduction are still not well understood. In this talk\, we will use layered AMX Zintl materials to look closely at how covalent/ionic bonds impact thermal transport properties. We leverage polymorphic phase transitions to systematically probe the relationship between covalent substructure\, elastic moduli\, and phonon scattering. Next\, we will look at electronic contributions to thermal conductivity and Lorenz number in a low lattice thermal conductivity system. The study will reveal the limitations of our current theoretical understanding of heat conduction by charge carriers\, while paving the way for another tuning parameter for thermal conductivity.\n\nBio: Ashiq Shawon is a PhD candidate in the materials science and engineering program at Michigan State University. His research focuses on thermal and elastic properties in thermoelectric materials. He is also currently interning at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory with the Neutron and X-ray scattering group. Before moving to East Lansing\, Ashiq received a master’s degree in materials science from Korea National University of Transportation\, South Korea and a bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Shahjalal University of Science and Technology\, Bangladesh.
