  <title><![CDATA['The Art of Spin' wins the Georgia Tech-COPE Student Research Video Contest]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p class="p1">Congratulations to the teams that competed in the 2014 Georgia Tech–COPE Research Video Contest!&nbsp;Videos were evaluated on their research content as well as the teams ability to present their information.&nbsp;</p><p class="p1">This year's&nbsp;<em>Grand Prize</em>&nbsp;is awarded to &nbsp;for their video entitled, "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pux2J_AZYcI" target="_blank">The Art of Spin</a>" by Nils Persson and Dalsu Choi. The video&nbsp;illustrates the aggregation of P3HT using stop-motion animation and related transistor fabrication techniques to the popular backyard activity, spin art, using a homemade machine.</p><p class="p1">Nils and Dalsu are in the group of Elsa Reichmanis in the School of Chemical &amp; Biomolecular Engineering (ChBE).&nbsp;The team is awarded the grand prize for receiving the highest overall score. Congratulations Nils and Dalsu!&nbsp;</p><p class="p1">Nils Persson is a second-year graduate student studying the mechanisms of formation and properties of ordered structures of poly-3-hexylthiophene. He has been producing videos since junior high, from live concerts to short action films and sitcoms.</p><p class="p1">Dalsu Choi is a fourth-year graduate student working on the development and theoretic analysis of novel solution processing methods for effective molecular assembly of pi-conjugated polymers.</p><p class="p1">Georgia Tech-COPE would also like to mention the other students that submitted videos in the contest and thank them for their participation.&nbsp;</p><ul><li class="p1">"<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpsJR--5nEU" target="_blank">Computer Simulations of the Bulk-Heterojunction Morphology in Organic Solar Cells</a>" Khahn Do (Chemistry, Bredas Group)</li></ul><ul><li class="p1">"<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ak2m6v5UXbw" target="_blank">Processing and structure-property relationships in conjugated polymer nano structures</a>"<strong>&nbsp;</strong>Thomas Bougher and Matthew Smith (ME, Cola Group)</li></ul><p class="p1"><strong>About the Georgia Tech–COPE Research Video Contest</strong><br />The&nbsp;<a href="http://www.cope.gatech.edu/education/videocontest.php" target="_blank">Georgia Tech–COPE Research Video Contest</a>&nbsp;gives students involved in the field of organic photonics and electronics at Georgia Tech an opportunity to present their research and compete with other students.</p>]]></body>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
