Who is the STEAM-Team?

This is a legit question. We wanted to provide an opportunity for our parents and students to learn more about us. Check out some of the info below 🤓

News 10 Visits for our Mother’s Day STEM Event

Kids and Science Educator Allie are excited about their flower boxes for mom!

STEAMwhiz, a local science lab that teaches STEAM, gave kids a chance to build a unique and sentimental gift for Mother’s Day this weekend.

Dr J Interviewed by TBR Newsmedia about Novel Tech

Research team members Dario Arena (NSLS), Javier Pulecio (Condensed Matter Physics & Materials Science), Shawn Pollard (Stony Brook University grad student working in CMP&MS), and Yimei Zhu (CMP&MS).

Even when most electronics aren’t functioning or are in sleep mode, they consume power. Leaving an inactive laptop long enough without charging it causes the battery to drain…

Allie Teaches STEM to Suffolk County Staff at Brookhaven National Lab

Girl Scouts of Suffolk County staff members toss macroinvertebrate leaf packs filled with forest debris into Weaver Pond at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Staff members were learning about environmental sciences as part of an educational program at the Lab so they could teach Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) workshops to the Girl Scouts.

The Girl Scouts of Suffolk County (GSSC) organization recognizes the importance of STEM-focused activities, and through its partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory, has participated in an increasing number…

Dr J is a full fledged Scientist

He has worked at the top research laboratories in the world! Take a look at his publications in physics and engineering where he looked at atoms and worked on multi-million dollar pieces of research equipment…

Allie & Dr J Teach Girl Scouts How Scientists See the Invisible

Girl Scouts from the Mastic-Shirley area visit Brookhaven Lab’s Center for Functional Nanomaterials (CFN), where they got a lesson in a nanoscience concept called scanning probe microscopy.

In celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts of America and the importance of science education, Girl Scouts from the Mastic-Shirley area visited Brookhaven National Lab on Monday, October 8, to learn how scientists “see the invisible.”

Allie & Dr J Publish A Snapshot of STEM in Young America

The purpose of this study is to examine third and eighth grade students’ attitudes and knowledge of STEM related careers in an American school culture. For the past several years, we in the Nano Computer Research Group at the University of South Florida, have presented local K-12 institutions with various aspects of our research to raise STEM awareness.

Stacked nanoscale magnetic vortices (blue and green discs) separated by an extremely thin layer of copper can be driven to oscillate in unison, potentially producing a powerful signal that could be put to work in a new generation of cell phones, computers, and other applications. This illustration shows an array of such stacked vortices, each measuring a few hundred nanometers in diameter.

“Almost all of today’s electronic technology, from the light bulb to the smartphone, involves the movement of charge,” said Brookhaven physicist Javier Pulecio, lead author on the new study. “But harnessing spin could open the door for much more compact and novel types of antennasn school culture.
