WST Learning Community Dinner, 11/6/17

Join Georgia Tech School of Materials Science and Engineering professor, Dr. Rosario Gerhardt, for complimentary dinner and to learn more about her work and experience in MSE. 

Prof. Gerhardt’s research focuses on determining structure-property-processing relationships in a wide range of materials.  Most recently, her research group has focused on making and characterizing polymer and ceramic composites containing conducting and semiconducting nanofillers and on the synthesis and assembly of nanoparticles into thin films useful for use as transparent electrodes, solar cell components, microwave heatable inserts, conductive paper, etc. 

Materials Research Society(MRS),  the IEEE/Dielectrics Division and Instrument and Measurement Division, the Metallurgical Society(TMS), the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the American Society for Non-Destructive Testing(ASNT), the International Microelectronics and Packaging Society(IMAPS) and the Microscopy Society of America(MSA).  She is also a member of Sigma Xi, Keramos and Tau Beta Pi. She has been active as an executive officer of the Electronics Division of the American Ceramic Society, having served as Chair of that division during the 2000-2001 year and on other capacities since then.   She also serves as the Faculty Advisor for the Student Chapter of ACeRS and MRS at Georgia Tech and has been co-organizer of numerous symposia both at ACerS, MRS and other societies. She is a member of the National Research Council Associateship Panel Review Program. She is the author or co-author of over 200 refereed publications and has served as research advisor to more than 40 graduate students.    Dr. Gerhardt and one of her students recently received one of the 2011 ASNT fellowship awards.

All Georgia Tech students and WST mentors welcome.
