- '98
AP wins Collegiate Inventors Competition
- One
of the six 2002 winners (198 entries) of the international
- Collegiate
Inventors Competition is Jeffrey Anker '98, currently
- finishing
his Ph.D. in applied physics at the University of Michigan.
- His
winning entry was MagMOONs, Magnetically Modulated Optical
- Nanoprobes.
When used in place of traditional chemical dyes, these
- nanoprobes
can be magnetically prompted to flash, making the
- tested
material clearly visible.
Each winner received a medal, $20,000 in cash, a $2,000 gift
- certificate
and a pocket computer from Hewlett-Packard (a sponsor),
- and
four Goodyear tires (a sponsor). Faculty advisers won $10,000
- honorariums.
We
have had Collegiate Inventors Competition winners in 1993
- (Adviser
Prof. T.P. Ma, EE), 1996 (Prof. Peter Kindlmann, EE),
- 1998
(Prof. T.P. Ma), and 1999 (Dr. Nathan Delson, ME).
The next deadline for entry to the Competition is June 1, 2003.
