On April 24, 2024, David E. Crawford (first person on the right of the photo), a physics graduate student working with Professor Jianjun (JJ) Dong (first person on the left of the photo), made a research presentation to two scientists from Department of Energy (DOE)’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Judith Vidal (second person from the right) and Katherine Jungjohann (third person from the right), in the Leach Science Center on Auburn’s campus. Vidal and Jungjohann are the director and associate director of the recently funded DOE Energy’s Energy Earthshots Initiative research center on DEGradation Reactions in Electrothermal Energy Storage (DEGREES). Physicists of Auburn University are collaborating with this NREL led multi-institute research team on the long duration storage of renewable, sustainable thermal energy, by providing research expertise on atomistic materials simulations.

For Wendy Hood and Geoffrey Hill in Biological Sciences, Andreas Kavazis in Kinesiology, and their team, Emma Rhodes, Paulo Mesquita, and Jeff Yap, traveling the country to unlock the mystery of mitochondria in migrating aviary species has allowed them to make a significant contribution to research in an area that has not been investigated before. The first publication conducted in the AU MitoMobile van is featured in Scientific Reports, “Flexibility underlies differences in mitochondrial respiratory performance between migratory and non‑migratory White‑crowned Sparrows (Zonotrichia leucophrys).”
