I have particularly appreciated the streamlined nature of entering a research group and building a mentor-student relationship, the independence and confidence I experienced applying my knowledge of materials science, and the warm, family-like nature of the lab groups. The research at Hopkins, particularly that available to me as an undergraduate in the Materials Science and Engineering Department, exceeded my expectations.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_4935\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/materials\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/wach.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4935\" class=\"wp-image-4935 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/materials\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/wach-300x257.jpg\" alt=\"Zachary Wach, BS 2011\" width=\"300\" height=\"257\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4935\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zachary Wach, BS 2011<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Zachary Wach worked in the lab of <a title=\"Hai-Quan Mao\" href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/materials\/faculty\/hai-quan-mao\/\">Dr. Hai-Quan Mao<\/a> studying the guidance of human stem cell differentiation through topographical, material, chemical, and other physical micro- and nano-environmental cues.
