Spring 2019 – Gelatin Composite with Automotion

Affiliations:
Project Leader: Dali Huang
dhuang@tamu.edu
Chemical Engineering
Faculty Mentor: Dr. Zhengdong Cheng, Ph.D.
Meeting Times:
Team Size:
3 (Team Full)
Open Spots: 0
Special Opportunities:
You will get chance to present your work as poster or oral presentation. You will have chance to be co-author when publishing research journal.
Team Needs:
Basic chemistry knowledge, interest in chemical research experiment in lab
Description:
We will prepare some gelatin-based hydrogels that can move by themselves thanks to a reaction called Belousov-Zhabotinsky. We will analyze the wave formation and position of the gel throughout the course of the reaction. This type of research can be potentially applied to biological and biomedical fields: cardiac arrithmias, migraines and cellular growth of molds.
