Materializing at the top Jim Hannah © Provided by Dayton Daily News Katherine “Katy” Hitchcock is currently pursuing her Ph.D. at Duke. CONTRIBUTED It was at Wright State University where Katherine “Katy” Hitchcock did a deep dive into materials science. Today, the engineering alumna has the ear of the Joint Chiefs of Staff when it comes to evaluating new materials. Hitchcock earned her bachelor’s degree in materials science and engineering from Wright State in 2015. She received her master’s degree in biomedical engineering at Duke University. She is currently ...

Ohio State earns DOE funding to drive fuel economy improvements in next-gen vehicles Center for Automotive Research will lead research Matt Schutte 614-247-6445 The Ohio State University has received $5 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) to optimize fuel economy in connected and automated vehicles. This is Ohio State’s second project to be funded through ARPA-E’s Next-Generation Energy Technologies for Connected and Automated On-Road Vehicles (NEXTCAR) program. Research will be led by Ohio State’s Center for Au...

Electricity could help speed wound healing, new study shows Electrical impulses may help vessels more quickly get healing agents to injuries The study, published in the Royal Society of Chemistry journal Lab on a Chip, found that steady electrical stimulation generates increased permeability across blood vessels, providing new insight into the ways new blood vessels might grow. The electrical stimulation provided a constant voltage with an accompanying electric current in the presence of fluid flow. The findings indicate that stimulation increases permeability of the blood vessel – an imp...

UV radiation kills virus that causes COVID-19 in lab, study finds Specific wavelength of UV was more than 99 percent effective A specific wavelength of ultraviolet radiation killed more than 99.99% of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in laboratory tests, a new study has found. The results could offer an encouraging option for inactivating the virus that causes COVID-19 from surfaces or, potentially, from the air. It is the first study to demonstrate that specific doses of UV222, a relatively short wavelength of ultraviolet radiation, may be a feasible and safe approach to disinfect...
