Sudipta Seal News

The academy, who selected UCF Pegasus Professors Deborah Beidel and Sudipta Seal among this year’s inductees, is a group that brings together the nation’s most distinguished scholars who live and work in Florida.

Students will receive awards ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 each to continue their education, which will help advance space-related technology and exploration.

Sudipta Seal is one of 23 fellows recognized for his contributions which have impacted the area of space, medicine and the environment.

Backed by the National Science Foundation, researchers are working on developing a nanoparticle film that would “catch” and kill virus to better protect healthcare providers.

Graduates of the new degree are sought by employers in a wide variety of high-tech industries such as space, defense, electronics, energy and medicine.

The society is one of the oldest chemical societies in the world.

Sudipta Seal will receive the prestigious Materials Research Society Fellow award in April and the the Lee Hsun Lecture award from the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Metal Research in June.

This is the first rapid detector for dopamine and has the potential to help doctors diagnose Parkinson’s, depression and some forms of cancer.

Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the degree, the new coursework combines the fields of engineering, physics and chemistry.
