ISI Highly Cited
Prof. Gogotsi has been included in the list of ISI Highly Cited researchers for the 3rd year in the row: http://hcr.stateofinnovation.thomsonreuters.com
This recognition is based on the number of papers that are within the top 1% in the materials science field. This is clearly the result of excellent work of our extremely productive Nanomaterials Group.
Amanda Recognized for Boren Fellowship
Drexel University students have been very successful in winning the prestigious Boren Fellowship. Our very own PhD student, Amanda Pentecost, is one of them. Only about 10% out of 250 or so combined Boren scholars and fellows are science/technology/engineering majors. Read the full story here.
