In my future work, I aspire to continue investigating how superconducting nanowire dynamics can be controlled and harnessed for the development of new electronics.

Acceptance Speech × Acceptance Speech × 2019 Recipient Photo: 2019 Recipient of IEEE CSC Graduate Study Fellowship in Applied Superconductivity Abigail Wessels Through my involvement with optimization of soft x-ray TESs, I intend to help broaden the impact of the applied superconductivity field and continue to increase its relevance within the scientific community. As TESs become used more commonly for fundamental research in biology, chemistry and physics the impact of our work increases in scale and scope. Acceptance Speech × Acceptance Speech × 2019 Recipient Photo: 2019 Recipient of IEEE CSC Graduate Study Fellowship in Applied Superconductivity Federica Pierro I would like to continue my research by experimentally investigating the behavior of HTS cables. Using skills acquired during my Ph.D., I would combine the experiments with finite element modelling. Finally, I would like to expand my knowledge working on aspects relevant to magnet design, where I believe my knowledge of finite element modeling and testing would be well suited. Acceptance Speech × Acceptance Speech × 2019 Recipient Photo: 2019 Recipient of IEEE CSC Graduate Study Fellowship in Applied Superconductivity Lorenzo Bortot Overall, I will push my HTS technology in high-field magnets for particle accelerators research in both its theoretical and technological aspects. I will integrate the rigorous mathematical perspective of the TEMF Institute at TU Darmstadt and the great expertise of CERN in magnets for accelerators. Acceptance Speech × Acceptance Speech × 2019 Recipient Photo: 2019 Recipient of IEEE CSC Graduate Study Fellowship in Applied Superconductivity Tahereh Jabbari I am working on logic locking techniques in superconductive electronics to improve security in superconductive technology. Also, SCE electronic design automation (EDA) tools in SFQ technology can be improved security analysis and failures in superconductive electronics. Significant progress in this project and fabrication techniques can result from programmable routing structure and programmable switches of the SFQ FPGA design in the field of applied superconductivity in the future.
