On Friday, October 18th, at the Women Researchers Support OfficeSG-FResHU SupportA public seminar will be held on campus, presented by researcher John C. Mauro, who was invited by [organization name].
The invited professor holds a PhD in glass engineering and has led the development team for new glasses and ceramics, including Gorilla glass, at Corning Corporation in the United States. He has received numerous international academic awards, including the Woldemar A. Weyl International Glass Science Award. Since 2017, he has been a professor at Pennsylvania State University, where he is active in a wide range of academic research fields, including fundamental and applied glass science, statistical mechanics, computational and condensed matter physics, non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and topology of disordered networks.
Furthermore, the invited speaker has successfully built a career in both industry and academia while maintaining a work-life balance. In this lecture, the speaker will share their perspective, including "10 things I wish I had known when I started working," which they would like to convey to young scientists. In the second half, they will discuss the importance of understanding the relaxation phenomenon of glass and the physical origins of its non-Arrhenius and non-exponential properties, incorporating examples of relaxation phenomena in advanced applications such as liquid crystal displays and glass used in electronic devices such as mobile phone covers.
