As part of the BioXFEL outreach program at ASU three highschool students and one undergraduate student worked in the Lab in the “BioVizSim Village” for ten days on the Experiencing Molecules Project.

As part of his applied project for his Professional Science Master’s in Nanoscience at ASU, Ben Folsom constructed theoretical models for recently synthesized hollowed rhodium nanoframe and covalently bonded carbon nanotube–graphene pillars based on the TEM images provided in the source publications. Using density functional theory (DFT) calculations he investigated the interaction of nanoframes and nanotube pillars.

As part of his final project for the course Simulation Approaches to Bio- and Nanophysics (ASU PHY494/PHY598), C. Michael Gilbert performed classical molecular dynamics simulations of a smaller carbon nanotube in a larger one.
