SUMMARY:Coffee Hour with Caroline Ross
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a Coffee Hour with Dr. Caroline Ross, a professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at MIT since 1997. Prior to that, she spent six years working in Research and Development at Komag, Inc. in San Jose, CA, which was at the time the world’s largest independent supplier of computer hard disks. This work was preceded by two years of research as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard. She has a Bachelors degree and a Ph.D. from Cambridge University in England, has published about 250 papers and 10 patents, and is on the editorial boards of J. Appl. Phys/Appl. Phys. Letts., J. Magn. Magn. Mater. and formerly J. Phys. D. Her area of research is in magnetic materials, primarily for data storage and data processing applications, especially fabrication and magnetic characterization; magnetooptical films for integrated photonic devices, and self-assembly of block copolymers and other systems for nanoscale lithography and fabrication. During the Coffee Hour, Professor Ross will be open to discussing her experiences in academia and issues specific to being a woman in science.Kindly RSVP to  elisewilkes@fas.harvard.edu
