Adam Leibovich
My research interests centers on the strong and weak interactions of the Standard Model. In particular, I use effective field theory techniques to study heavy quarks as a probe of these interactions, and to try to uncover physics beyond the Standard Model. I am also interested in gravitational waves, the physics of extra dimensions, supersymmetry, in matter at extreme densities, and on physics relevant to the Large Hadron Collider.

Vincent Sokalski received his B.S. from the University of Pittsburgh and his M.S. and Ph.D from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) both in Materials Science and Engineering. Following his graduate work, he spent two years as a postdoctoral fellow in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, still at CMU, and finally joined the faculty at Carnegie Mellon University in 2013.
Dr. Mostafa Bedewy is an Assistant Professor of Industrial Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh, where he leads the NanoProduct Lab (www.nanoproductlab.org). Before that, he worked as a Postdoctoral Associate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the area of bionanofabrication with Professor Karl Berggren in the Research Lab for Electronics (RLE). Also, he was previously a Postdoc at the MIT Laboratory for Manufacturing and Productivity (LMP), working with Professor John Hart on in situ characterization of carbon nanotube growth. In 2013, he completed his PhD at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where he worked with Professor Hart on studying the population dynamics and the collective mechanochemical factors governing the growth and self-organization of filamentary nanostructures. He holds a Bachelor’s degree (honors) in Mechanical Design and Production Engineering (2006) and a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (2009), both from Cairo University. Dr. Bedewy recently received the Outstanding Young Manufacturing Engineer Award from the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME) in 2018, the Ralph E. Powe Junior Faculty Enhancement Award from the Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) in 2017, the Robert A. Meyer Award from the American Carbon Society in 2016, the Richard and Eleanor Towner Prize for Distinguished Academic Achievement from the University of Michigan in 2014, and the Silver Award from the Materials Research Society (MRS) in 2013. His research interests include advanced manufacturing, nanoscale fabrication, metrology and materials characterization, chemical vapor deposition, carbon nanotubes, hierarchical nanostructure self-assembly, and biomolecular engineering.
