On October 22, 2024, RASEI partnered with Colorado WRISE to host a panel discussion exploring careers in the renewable energy sectors.

The Colorado Women of Renewable Industries and Sustainable Energy, or Colorado WRISE, is a local chapter of the nationwide organization that seeks to change our energy future through the collective power of community. The panel consisted of seven leaders from across a range of renewable sectors, from national lab, through utilities and non-profits, to power systems.

The panelists introduced themselves with a short biography and answered questions on everything from how they made their way into careers in the renewable sector, to the future of careers in this growing space.

Thank you to all the panelists and organizers!

POSE Fall 2024 Kickoff Workshop

POSE Fall 2024 Kickoff Workshop Daniel Morton Mon, 10/07/2024 - 16:43

Daniel Morton

In early October of 2024, RASEI hosted the kickoff workshop for POSE, a new community being brought together to address some of the most critical challenges we face to do with plastics and polymers.

Polymer Solutions for the Environment, or POSE, seeks to establish a Center that will bring together expertise around the development of a circular polymer economy.

Plastics and polymers are critical materials in the modern age, forming the building blocks of everything from electronics to packaging, but this versatility comes with a cost, namely the waste and infiltration of the environment by microplastics.

This workshop brought together thought leaders in the polymer sector, from a cross section of academic, national lab and industrial organizations. The goal was to explore how best the POSE community can build a program that complements existing efforts in the field to drive the science and policy forward.

Three areas of focus were discussed, including the development of a circular polymer economy, the development of polymers that are needed for a just clean energy transition, and the integration of the science and technology research with policy, economics and social sciences.

It was a great meeting with more than 60 participants who came together to discuss ideas, present their research and approaches, and help shape the goals and directions of this nascent community.

Monday October 7, 2024 | 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM

CU �鶹ӰԺ, East Campus, SEEC Building C120

Join us at this kick-off workshop for the Polymer Solutions for the Environment initiative. This will be held at CU �鶹ӰԺ, on the East Campus in the SEEC Building, Room C120 on Monday October 7, 2024. This one-day workshop brings together key collaborators and stakeholders from across the region, with a focus on discussing and developing a roadmap for POSE. Talks will have a spotlight on how POSE can join and amplify the existing regional community of researchers in tackling Colorado's most pressing sustainability challenges and exploring the role of polymer science in addressing these issues. We plan to define the goals, milestones, and target research areas for POSE.

Several RASEI Fellows and members of the NSF Science and Technology Center for Integration of Modern Optoelectronic Materials on Demand (IMOD) were involved in the development of successful proposals for NSF Partnerships for Research and Education in Materials (PREM) grants.

These grants will enable RASEI members to form closer partnerships with researchers at Fort Lewis College (Durango, CO), Norfolk State University (Norfolk, VA), and UC Merced (Merced, CA). These projects will expand participation, provide access to materials and facilities and provide support for training, research exchanges, meetings and workshops.

Two proposals were funded. The Venture for Innovation in Self-Assembly and Integration of Optoelectronic Nanostructures (VISION) focuses on a partnership between IMOD (which includes RASEI Fellows Seth Marder, Mike Toney, Gordana Dukovic, David Jonas and Matt Beard), and UC Merced. The Partnership for Education and Advancement of Quantum and nano-Sciences (PEAQS) brings together the IMOD team with researchers from Fort Lewis College and Norfolk State University.

While their scientific and technical foci are different, these collaborations have shared missions of developing programs that cultivate student potential in STEM, offering enriched research opportunities, interdisciplinary scientific collaborations, pedagogical development and inclusive mentoring.

Check out more about each the programs by reading their abstract and checking out their websites.
