Slide 1 of 2
A Synthetic Delivery Vehicle for Gene Transfer
“hitchhike” gene delivery nanoparticles onto motor protein complexes
Transport and Thermal Fluids PhenomenaSlide 1 of 2
High-Fidelity Numerical Modeling & Simulation of Fire Suppression
Predicts multiphase turbulent mixing processes over a wide range of time/length scales.
Grand challenge of turbulence modeling with reactions
Multi-scale modeling on both large and small scales
Includes Sandia, Navy & NIST interactions plus excellent educational components.

Transport and Thermal Fluids PhenomenaSlide 2 of 2
Nanocolloid Assembly and Dispersion by Quantum “Design” of van der Waals Forces
Nanocolloids have remarkable electrical, optical and reactive properties
Need to prevent aggregation by predicting and controlling van der Waals forces
Use solvent mixtures to “shield” nanocolloids to keep them stable
Darrell Velegol & Milton W. ColePenn State
Stable nanoparticles Groups of red atoms with co-solvent “shield” (blue)
Unstable (aggregated)particles

Biomimetic Bone
Mimic both composition and nanostructure of bone
Prepare synthetic bone prosthetics
Load- bearing
Bioresorbable
Enable regeneration of hard tissue prosthetics into natural bone.
