Semiconductor devices are used in integrated circuits (IC) such as computer processors, microcontrollers and memory chips. These are present in everyday electrical and electronic devices. Their fabrication involves a sequence of photolithographic and chemical processing steps during which electronic circuits are gradually created on a wafer. The availability of metrology solutions, one of the critical... Read more

Craniofacial development is a complex morphogenetic process that requires a precise interplay of multiple cell and tissue types to generate the frontonasal skeleton. Disruption of this process results in highly prevalent human birth defects such as cleft lip and palate. Dr. Katherine Fantauzzo is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Craniofacial Biology at the... Read more
