MACES had our first All-Hands Meeting since before the pandemic. Our graduate students participated in a Grad-Slam competition and MACES faculty presented a general update to our program. Congradualations to Michael, Melissa and Yaneth, winners of the MACES GladSlam!
Our research, undergraduate, and graduate training and educational outreach programs are carefully designed to mirror NASA MIRO objectives. Our goals include:
Enhancing the scientific environment at UC Merced by recruiting and retaining high-caliber faculty and promising graduate students, as well as building facilities for materials science research facilities.
Impacting education at UC Merced and beyond by inspiring and training a new generation of STEM workers in a multidisciplinary materials research environment—particularly underrepresented and underprivileged students.
Driving research at UC Merced by promoting innovative and collaborative research in functional nanomaterials for energy and sensing for NASA missions and for needs here on Earth.
