Our research maintains a well-equipped lab with state-of-the-art infrastructure in micro/nanoscale additive manufacturing, multi-scale mechanical characterization, and high performance computing. We also routinely access high-end equipment in shared facilities, such as the Irvine Materials Research Institute (IMRI) and the Institute for Design and Manufacturing Innovation (IDMI).
