The Sensors Council Research Graduate Scholarship Awarded - Ready
Again for '06
The first Sensors Research Graduate Scholarship Award
was presented to Zhiyong Fan, University of California Irvine, at the
IEEE SENSORS 2005. Fan is studying toward a Ph.D degree in the area of nano-scale
devices for sensing applications. Applications were filed from Asia,
Europe and North America, making the selection process a challenging
one for five reviewers. The scholarship award
will be made again in 2006 – applications must be received by Tom
Weller ( – electronic submission only) by August 1, 2006.

The IEEE SENSORS 2005 Best Student Paper Award
Weisong Wang, Louisiana Tech University, was the first prize
winner among ten
finalists of the best student paper competition at the IEEE SENSORS 2005 . The title of the paper
was "Auto-tunable microlens chip
for sensing applications". The two second prizes went to Christine Eun,
University of Michigan, and Bo Li, Carnegie Mellon University. The
competition will be continued in 2006.

The recent
developments in THz sensing and imaging technology at Rensselaer are
pioneering new ways of seeing and understanding the world. It will
soon be possible for us to see images of electrical fields, diseased
tissues, the chemical compositions of plants and much more that is
currently undetectable by any other existing imaging systems.....(more) |
