Our new lab spaces, CPE 1.168, CPE 1.106 and 1.110, are now primed for occupancy! This achievement owes itself to the exceptional endeavors of the UT renovation team. Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to Butch Cumminghan & Eric Erb for masterfully overseeing all the intricate renovation tasks. We extend our sincere gratitude to the other esteemed members of the ASE/EM department for their generosity in sharing their lab spaces and facilities throughout this period.
