It's Tour Time!

The NUANCE Center recently welcomed a group of 50 prospective graduate students from the Chemical Biological Engineering (CBE) program during two tours in February showcasing the cutting-edge research capabilities available to future researchers. The tours highlighted the center's advanced equipment and state-of-the-art facilities, offering a firsthand look at how NUANCE's resources support groundbreaking work across multiple scientific disciplines.

During the tour, students were introduced to a wide array of specialized instrumentation, including tools for nanoscale imaging, materials characterization, and chemical analysis. Current Dravid Group Grad students Mike Barsoum and Kelly Matuszewski (and tour guides extraordinaire), were on hand to answer questions and offer insights into how these tools enable groundbreaking studies in fields ranging from biotechnology to nanotechnology.

The event emphasized NUANCE’s commitment to fostering innovation and collaboration, providing students with the tools and expertise they need to push the boundaries of science and engineering. As the tour wrapped up, students expressed excitement about the opportunities that await them at NUANCE, further solidifying the center's role as a hub for cutting-edge research in the CBE community.
