Professor Jose Renau
Research Interests
Computer architecture with focus on complexity, temperature, reliability. To gain further insights systems (SCOORE) are built on FPGAs and ASICs.
Alexander Revzin
Research Interest
Traditional cell biology techniques monitor large cellular populations and report dominant trends while leaving contributions from smaller cell subsets unaccounted for. Our laboratory focuses on developing novel microsystems for cell cultivation and analysis. The research thrusts in the lab may be subdivided into the following categories.
Robert Rice
My research seeks to find solutions to water security for the continuous demand that populations are placing on a finite resource. The research searches for innovative solutions using developing technologies to improve the delivery of data for decision support systems. Collaboration across multiple disciplines (i.e. engineering, natural sciences, economics) is a requisite for the advancement of process level understanding.
