Students use ReaxFF software to model reactions of nanomaterials relevant to solar energy storage and conversion.
Each student carries out a variation on a problem the whole group is working on, then we combine data.
Group meetings provide training, scientific background and context.
Who can participate?
Who can participate?
All students at F&M are invited to participate! Join our group on Ampersand!
What do you need?
What do you need?
Come to 1 hour group meeting/week
Bring your own laptop. We will provide you with the necessary software, which can be run on a typical PC, Mac, or Linux laptop.
Worried about time?
Worried about time?
Of course you are! Your time management skills will be challenged in your first semester.
This is designed to be a flexible experience that offers opportunities, not obligations. Join as you can and reduce your hours when needed. You are always welcome back!
