Innovating for Women: Professor Britt Goods Th'11 applies engineering principles and systems biology to crucial issues in women's health. Plus, students' deep dive into the history of the coal industry and its impacts on the region; and more.
Dean Alexis Abramson speaks to Professor Geoffroy Hautier about how better theories and stronger computers are transforming science, and about his multidisciplinary approach to discovery and the future of materials science.
BY MICHAEL BLANDING | Professor Britt Goods Th'11, who studies systems biology, has long been fascinated by women's health issues, which historically have been woefully underexamined.
During Spring Break in Appalachia, students did a deep dive into the history of the coal industry and its impacts on the region. READ MORE»

Professor Peter Chin, lead investigator of the Learning, Intelligence + Signal Processing (LISP) Lab, welcomes first-year students as paid interns researching the neuroscientific basis of intelligence. Iroda Abdulazizova '26 connected through the Women in Science Project (WISP), which matches students and STEM opportunities. Kimberly Girola-Guzman '26 learned about the lab via the First-Year Research in Engineering Experience (FYREE), which provides early hands-on experience and mentoring. It's a win-win: "Kim and Iroda have been writing programs in various coding languages and helping me run machine learning experiments," says Chin.
Abdulazizova studied hyperbolic space and differential geometry—"I never realized that there’s so much math in daily life," she says—while Girola-Guzman sharpened her communication skills: "Professor Chin has shown me the value of being able to distill our research into accessible and concise presentations." Says Chin: "It's my job to help my students become independent thinkers, researchers, and scientists in their own right."

In addition to leading 16 students in his two-term capstone ENGS 15: "Senior Design Challenge," Professor Eugene Korsunskiy put his engineering skills to use building this treehouse. The graduating students—who spent the two-term course using human-centered design methods to work on projects with local community organizations—assessed his work during their end-of-term celebration in June.
