The Baltimore City Mayoral Fellowship accepts applications from students in their junior or senior year of college, current graduate-level students, and recent college graduates. Those with a demonstrated interest in public service as a career are encouraged to apply. Consideration is given to the candidate’s application, academic achievement, demonstrated interest in public service, and career interests.

Each February, over President’s Day weekend, the Center for Women in Technology (CWIT) presents the Bits & Bytes Program for high school junior girls. Each year, about 20-30 academically talented young women are invited to an overnight visit at UMBC and are hosted by the CWIT Scholars and Affiliates in CWIT’s Living Learning Community. The program supports CWIT’s mission to encourage and support women leaders in Information Technology and Engineering fields.

The purpose of this free event is to engage local high school girls in the college atmosphere and expose them to the possibilities open to them in engineering or IT majors in college. Along with in-depth exposure to life as a college student and UMBC as an institution, the students participate in an engineering or IT design competition (for prizes) and interact with current UMBC students, including staying overnight in a residence hall on campus and attending a college class with one of the CWIT students. More information & pictures can be found here: www.cwit.umbc.edu/hs/bits+bytes

In order for this event to be a success, we are in need of UMBC student volunteers.

After you sign up, Angela Norton (Student Volunteer Coordinator for Bits & Bytes) will email you with more details. Email Angela (an7@umbc.edu) if you have any issues with signing up.

The Nebraska Summer Research Program is a consortium of NSF funded Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) and other summer research opportunities programs (SROP).

All work and no play?
Not exactly.

One unique feature of the Nebraska Summer Research Program is the partnership between the REU and SROP programs and the Office of Graduate Studies. Students benefit in having a community of scholars in which to learn and to share research with.

This intensive summer research experience provides mentoring and research experiences while allowing scholars to preview graduate school life. Students with a strong interest in graduate programs are particularly encouraged to apply, as are those from populations traditionally underrepresented in graduate education.

A Self-Powered In-Vitro Biosensing Microsystem

Dr. Gymama Slaughter

Computer Science and Electrical Engineering
University of Maryland, Baltimore County

11:30am-12:45pm Friday, 10 February 2012, ITE 237

Recent studies on biofuel cells have shown that energy can be harvested from biological compounds. Because of the recent biofuel cell discoveries, it possible to use inertial power scavenging design by converting interstitial glucose into energy through the coupling of enzymes and three-dimensional nanowire arrays. This talk will discuss our own contribution to identifying a pathway to embed sensing by eliminating the need for a potentiostat circuit and an external power source.

The self-powered biosensing microsystem consist of massively dense 3D nanowire cell structures fused with an energy harvesting circuit that maximizes power and energy densities while maintaining short ion transport distances, thus leading to dramatic improvement in both speed and energy efficiency of biofuel cells. Not only is such a paradigm extremely fast because of absence of a potentiostat circuit, but it is also extremely energy-efficient since the device operates at low voltage and current levels. As a result, the biosensing microsystem generates a drive signal in real-time and periodically powers an electrical device by generating and accumulating electrical power as a result of the catalysis of glucose.

Gymama Slaughter received her B.S. in Chemistry in 2001, M.S. in Chemical Engineering in 2003, and a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from the Virginia Commonwealth University in 2005. She then joined Virginia State University as an Assistant Professor in Computer Engineering and Director of the Center for Biosystems and Engineering University. Finally, she joined the UMBC as Assistant Professor in Computer Engineering in August 2010.

Dr. Slaughter is currently the Director of the Bioelectronics Laboratory Group and oversees research and research outreach programs in the BEL Group. She develops and applies sensor-processor platforms, focusing on innovative contributions to identifying a pathway to embed sensing and processing functions in the same device to eliminate bottlenecks arising from communication between the sensor, transducer, and processor, thus, resulting in ultra-fast and ultra-low power devices.

Her research has been supported by the NSF for her diabetes research that focuses on the design and development of glucose biosensor, especially in relationship to monitoring blood glucose in diabetics. Her research interests include biosensors, microsensors, microfabrication technology, and BioMEMS and design.
