Undergraduate Research: 間眅埶AV Department of Physics

Summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates refer to a variety of programmatic opportunities offered through universities, national, and international scientific organizations (USRA and MITACS). Department of Physics usually hosts around 10-15 undergraduate students working in a specific project (link to faculty project). Participants may be granted stipends. Summer research is available in all physics fields and provide high-level research experiences for undergraduates. In addition, students involved in undergraduate research have opportunities to present their research both on campus and across the country (such as at the Canadian Undergraduate Physics Conference).

USRA 2022: Chemical Physics student Joshua Yu studies graphene nanostructure using scanning transmission electron microscopy with supervisor Prof. Karen Kavanagh, in the Electron Imaging and Holography Facility at 間眅埶AV (http://www.sfu.ca/eihf).

USRA 2022: Hannah Herdin received hands-on experience and equipment training as undergraduate researcher in Prof. Eundeok Muns Lab. Hannah and postdoctoral researcher Suyoung Kim stand in front of Magnetic Property Measurement System, discussing the specs of the equipment.

MITACS 2022: Charlotte Zehnder from Middlebury College is using results from the work shes done to show Jeff McGuirk how to make higher quality images of ultra-cold atoms that have been cooled to near absolute zero temperature.

MITACS 2022: Jonathan Posada, a MITACS undergraduate research assistant from Universidad de Antioquia, Colombia, reviews the design of a titanium-sapphire femtosecond laser with graduate student Leya Lopez and supervisor Steve Dodge. The Dodge lab uses this laser to do time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy of high-temperature superconductors and other quantum materials.

Guest Participant

Student Supervisor Research Poster Presentation  
Geoffrey M Nonis Graeme J Koelwyn Geoffrey is a Biological Physics student and has been conducting research in Summer 2022 under the supervision of Graeme J Koelwyn (Professor, Faculty of Health Sciences). Geoffreys research focuses on how exercise influence the redeployment of immune cells in various scenarios. Geoffrey would love to present a poster at the Physics UG poster presentation. The Role of Exercise to Reverse Systemic Inflammation, Hypercoagulation and Immune Suppression Following Sepsis
