Meet
the unBLIND Team:
Patrick Colsher is currently a senior double majoring in Electrical and Biomedical Engineering, with a minor in Economics. He originally hails from Milwaukee, WI, although due to a recent move by his parents, he now calls Durham, NC his home. Patrick plans on pursuing a career in medical device imaging for a few years before he attends law school.
Trent Justus Kososki is a senior majoring in Electrical Engineering and Economics. He has lived all over the world (London, Saudi Arabia, Zaire, California) and currently calls Almaty, Kazakkstan his home. After graduation, Trent is interested in pursuing a finance job on Wall Street.
Rebekah Osborn plans to graduate in May with a major in Electrical and Computer Engineering and a minor in Religion. While she is originally from Peoria, IL, and her plans for next year have yet to be determined, they will likely include law school on the east coast.
Brett Green is a senior at Duke University majoring in Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering and Economics. He was born and spent the majority of his childhood in Iowa City , Iowa but spent a year living in both London and New York . He returned to London in the Summer of 2002 to study at the London School of Economics. His future plans include attending graduate school to further pursues his interests in Auction and Contract Theory along with various other forms of Game Theory.
Mentor Dr. Bob Guenther uses femtosecond
pulsed laser systems to study ultrafast phenomena. Current research includes
characterization of quantum well devices, development of terahertz electronics,
and analysis of bunched relativistic electron beams. Because these projects
are of fundamental interest to physicists, engineers, and material scientists,
Dr. Guenther's research involves collaboration with other departments at
Duke and other major universities. He is presently working on the application
of femtosecond technology to the study of solids, the development of terahertz
sources, and new measurement techniques associated with electron beams.
He has used a Michaelson Interferometer to observe the temporal characteristics
of the electron-beam used in the FEL. For
