Forty-four graduate students competed for prizes in the PPG Elevator Pitch Competition held May 22, 2018 in the Millennium Science Complex.

Diseased cells such as metastatic cancer cells have markedly different mechanical properties that can be used to improve targeted drug uptake, according to a team of researchers at Penn State.

A team of Penn State researchers has developed a biomimetic nanosystem to deliver therapeutic proteins to selectively target cancerous tumors.

For the first time, researchers have created a nanocomposite of ceramics with a two-dimensional material that opens the door to new designs of nanocomposites with a variety of applications.

Conventional lithium-ion batteries cannot be rapidly charged at temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, but now a team of Penn State engineers has created a battery that can self-heat, allowing rapid charging regardless of the outside chill.

The Center for Lignocellulose Structure and Formation (CLSF) is receiving its third round of funding, and it was one of only nine centers nationwide recommended for a four-year renewal.

A self-healing membrane that acts as a reverse filter, blocking small particles and letting large ones through, is the "straight out of science fiction" work of a team of Penn State mechanical engineers.

A team of researchers from Penn State’s Materials Research Institute and the University of Utah has developed a wearable energy harvesting device that could generate energy from the swing of an arm while walking or jogging.

The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded $1.8 million to a team of scientists led by John Badding, to establish the NSF Center for Nanothread Chemistry (CNC).

Through her research, Boschitsch hopes that she can make an impact far beyond the walls of the Penn State Department of Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering (MNE).
