Materials interfaces: A prime spot for innovation
The smaller the crystals, the bigger the possibilities.
So goes one of the mottos of Fadi Abdeljawad, an associate professor of materials science and engineering at Lehigh University. Abdeljawad joined the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science in August 2023 and has several research initiatives underway to develop theoretical and computational models that explain how materials behave at near atomic scale resolution.

From simulation to reality: Making social media a safer space for kids through AI
Like it or not, social media has become the new mall for kids. It’s where they want to be, and it’s a place they can easily go—often with no guidance, no oversight, and no guardrails. And when the content gets ugly or confusing or weird, it can be tough for them to know what to do.
