Undergraduate Robert Su received a prestigious Capstone Scholarship from the Department of Bioengineering as well as a Mary Gates Research Scholarship for his Capstone Project work on DIVE. DIVE is a piece of software currently under development in the Daggett Lab for visualizing large datasets. Congratulations, Robert!

Valerie is honored to have been named a Biophysical Society Fellow for 2011 for her technical innovations and improvements in the field of molecular dynamics simulation.

Congratulations to the Daggett Lab’s 2011 graduates! Byron Kwok graduated with a B.S. in bioengineering, and Jackson Kellock graduated Magna Cum Laude with a B.S. in Chemistry.

A team of graduate students from the engineering school, including the Daggett Lab’s Jonathan Cheng, was awarded 2nd place in the UW Environmental Innovation Challenge presented by the Foster School of Business. The team created a system to facilitate water disinfection using solar energy for use in the developing world.

Graduate students Denny Bromley and Steve Rysavy presented their new data visualization program at the 2010 Microsoft eScience Workshop in Berkeley, CA.
