Olga Evdokimov was featured in the UIC News (4/18/12) for her work in creating a new heavy flavor quark program at UIC and her key role in creating a significant partnership between UIC and Central China Normal University (CCNU). Prof. Evdokimov, along with Henrik Aratyn, professor of physics and LAS associate dean for research and facilities, and Kevin Browne, vice provost for academic and enrollment service, traveled to Wuhan in February to complete the agreement between UIC and CCNU. The heavy flavor research program will be carried out at the STAR detector located at Brookhaven National Laboratory.
Robert Klie was featured in the Spring 2012 Edition of AtLAS for his work in bringing a new $3 million dollar Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope to UIC. Prof. Klie, who also has several funded projects in the general area of green research, notes that “things that were previously predicted by condensed-matter physics [and] chemistry theory can now actually be visualized, probed and tested".
