URI’s Buddini Karawdeniya explains work with ‘nanostructures’, reflects on move from native Sri Lanka When Buddini Karawdeniya was a middle school student in Sri Lanka, she didn’t want to make the same, boring atom model that her peers constructed year after year. Instead, she did something different, arranging lids of different sizes as energy levels […]

Researchers developing ‘Bay Observatory’ through RI C-AIM project to better measure ecological changes Dr. Harold ‘Bud’ Vincent, Associate Professor of Ocean Engineering at the University of Rhode Island, stands before a sleek, solar-powered buoy which looks more at home as a satellite in space than floating in Narragansett Bay. The machine is one of many […]
