The Rowland Foundation has awarded the Rowland Institute at Harvard $100,000 for one year to continue the program that provides mentoring and supervisory experience for a postdoctoral fellow and hands-on research experience for an undergraduate research student working with postdoctoral fellow.

The project will focus on characterizing and comparing motility behavior in liquids and model complex environments in two well-known pathogens - Vbrio cholerae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa whose swimming motility has barely been studied despite long-recognized...

The award will be presented on April 2, 2019 at the ACS National Meeting in...

Perovskite materials have the potential to be great LEDs, as very efficient red and green devices have been developed. Yet in order to be used in applications such as TVs and phones, blue LEDs are also required, and these have lagged far behind. Researchers in the Congreve Lab have figured out a surprising way to fix these materials: by adding a dopant, their brightness and efficiency counter-intuitively increase, leading to the highest efficiency blue...
