CRE2DO’s primary goal is to develop cutting-edge technologies that integrate 2D materials in space-resilient infrastructure materials, communication devices, and small satellite technology. The nanomaterials enhance the reliability of mechanical and electrical components in spaceship devices and wearable electronics. The superconductor materials developed by CRE2DO aim to eliminate the need for battery power, while the material composites could be used in the infrastructure for spaceship components destined for Mars, and on wearable electronics placed inside space suits to enable high-speed communication by astronauts back to the space station.

  STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: MELISSA

Melissa Venedicto works with Dr. Daniela Radu as a graduate researcher. She is continuing her Ph.D. studies at FIU. Melissa has been recognized with the FIU Presidential Fellowship and the Graduate Research Fellowship program from the National Science Foundation. 

Want to spread the love of science to your students? We have a new outreach opportunity to discuss the physics of catapults with students and help them build their very own catapults! Please reach out to the contacts below if you are interested in our outreach opportunity.
