Alfred (Jimmy) Ritter
Degrees obtained: PhD and post-doc,
Retired from the Department of Physics, Virginia Tech
Project description: The formation of biofilms on stents and catheters is a significant public health issue. My research seeks to understand how bacteria attach to surfaces.

Saeed Behzadinasab
Degrees obtained: B.Sc., M.Sc.
Current degree in progress: Ph.D.
Project description: The COVID-19 pandemic (caused by SARS-CoV-2 Virus) has significantly affected lives. I work on anti-SARS-CoV-2 coatings that rapidly inactivates the virus, thus to stop the spread of the disease by potential objects. I also work on adsorption in confined films.
