Professor Shireen Adenwalla with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Department of Physics and Astronomy was chosen as a Seed Grant Recipient with the Emergent Quantum Materials and Technologies (EQUATE) research group, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) EPSCoR. EQUATE’s Management Team chose her proposal from five applicants for the one-year opportunity. Adenwalla and a graduate student will investigate “Strain Driven Skyrmions in Thin Film Heterostructures,” which fits with EQUATE’s Focused Research Group (FRG1) area—specifically the topic of Correlation, Topological and Emergent Phenomena in Quantum Materials.
