Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a precise and scalable way to create ultra-thin films that could help the semiconductor industry build smaller, faster, and more efficient computer chips.

Ive Hermans was recently announced as the Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of Sustainable Chemical Transformations in the Whiting School of Engineering’s Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and the Krieger School of Arts & Sciences’ Department of Chemistry. He is a ROSEI core faculty member and a member of the institute’s leadership council.

As the Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of Sustainable Chemical Transformations, Hermans focuses on finding cleaner, faster industrial practices that reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing and boost the production of renewable energy.

Tiny steroid particles offer a promising solution for controlled drug release, potentially easing treatment regimens.

Three members of the department were recognized for their achievements.

Brandon Bukowski, an assistant professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and an associate researcher with the Ralph O’Connor Sustainable Energy Institute, was recently named a recipient of the Department of Energy’s Early Career Research Program Award. Early Career Awards recognize early-stage scholars with high levels of promise and excellence.

As demand for lithium-ion batteries, which power everything from electric vehicles to smartphones and grid-scale storage systems, increases, so too does the need for more cobalt and nickel, minerals that are essential to the batteries’ chemistry. Johns Hopkins researchers have identified electrowinning as a more sustainable way to separate and recover these metals from mined and recycled materials.

Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a new way to test for infectious diseases using everyday handheld glucometers. This innovation aims to simplify the process of measuring antibody levels, making diagnosis more accessible, particularly in places…

These two-year, $75,000 fellowships are awarded to early-career scientists in the U.S. and Canada who show strong potential to be leaders in their fields.

The project aims to develop a high-energy, fast-refueling liquid fuel cell that can deliver lightweight, efficient electric power for demanding mobile and national security applications.

The annual Clarivate Analytics list recognizes researchers with publications ranked in the top 1% of citations.

Spangler was delightfully surprised with $300,000 in research funding for her groundbreaking work in molecular immunoengineering.
