On National Research Administrator Day, Baylor celebrates research across campus, and those who support it. Meet just a few of our elite researchers whose work addresses key Texas needs and opportunities.
Baylor research is shaping the future of Texas.
It’s a natural fit for a University chartered before Texas was a state—we’ve been “For Texas” since the beginning. Today, Baylor researchers address many of the state’s most pressing challenges and opportunities in critical sectors.
Meet researchers advancing innovation and opportunity for Texas.
A spacecraft far from Earth . A military aircraft grounded. A part that won't arrive for weeks. In some environments, a breakdown is more than an inconvenience. It threatens readiness, safety and the mission itself.
As Texas continues to grow its footprint in advanced technology and manufacturing, Baylor engineer Alan Wang is developing photonic technologies that could help move information faster while dramatically reducing energy demands.
As Texas invests in advanced manufacturing, semiconductor technologies and quantum innovation, Julia Chan, Ph.D., is helping create the materials that could make those ambitions possible.
The technologies that will shape the next decade, from advanced aircraft and space systems to energy infrastructure and next-generation manufacturing, will depend on materials that often have not been fully developed yet.
The Arctic is a long way from Texas. Until it isn't. Baylor's ARKTOS Research Center prepares those deployed to cold weather regions to not only survive, but thrive, when critical objectives need met.
As Texas continues building advanced manufacturing, transportation, defense and healthcare industries, Baylor engineer JB Lee, Ph.D., is helping unlock new possibilities for the semiconductor technologies that power them.
As vehicles become more connected, capable and powered by alternative sources, Baylor engineer Annette von Jouanne is helping ensure the technologies behind them are efficient, reliable and secure.
As Texas positions itself for a future shaped by quantum technologies, Baylor physicist Luis Balicas is helping explore the materials that could make that future possible.
As Texas continues building its aerospace, defense and manufacturing industries, Baylor engineer David Jack, Ph.D., is helping develop materials that are stronger, tougher and easier to source.
As communities enjoy the benefits of growth, how can they protect the natural resources needed to support increased demand, and meet future needs? Ryan McManamay helps communities manage growth without outgrowing their resources.
