VINSE 14th Annual Undergraduate Research Symposium – Madeleine Adams and Adriana LaVopa
Madeleine and Adriana presented their posters during the VINSE 14th Annual Undergraduate Research Symposium. Both participants did an amazing job and special thanks to Jeb Buchner and Youngji Kim for working with both.
Madeline Adams is an undergraduate mechanical engineering major at Vanderbilt University and is entering her junior year. She has been with the Caldwell Lab since spring semester of her sophomore year and plans to continue with the Caldwell Lab after the summer program concludes. She presented her poster as part of the VUSE Summer Research Program: “Imaging polaritons in real-time with step-scan nano-FTIR.”
Adriana LaVopa is a rising fifth-year undergraduate at the University of Florida, majoring in Materials Science and Engineering with a minor in Linguistics. This summer, she is conducting research in Prof. Joshua Caldwell’s Nanophotonic Materials and Devices Lab, under the mentorship of postdoctoral researcher Dr. Youngji Kim. She presented her poster as part of the VINSE NSF-REU: “Local Control of Ferroelectric Switching for Optical Modulation in Al1-xBxN.”
