  mentoring_philosophy: ' in the Applied Superconductivity Center, we have a team approach to mentoring.  The student will work with other undergrads, with grad students, postdocs, our scientific staff, and our faculty members.  We train students by having them shadow people in the lab.  The student will be part of the research group and is expected to participate in our weekly group meetings.  '

  overall_research_project_description: |-
    The National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (MagLab) is home to some of the strongest magnets in the world.  These magnets are used in cutting-edge research to investigate the fundamental physical properties of materials, to understand how materials behave as a function of magnetic field, and to synthesize new materials under applied magnetic fields.  In the Applied Superconductivity Center,  we study superconducting materials that are critical to creating the MagLab's next generation of high-field magnets.

    This project investigates Bi-2212 (Bi2Sr2CaCu2)10, focusing on discovering what limits the electrical current in this superconductor and devising methods to overcome these limitations. It involves processing the Bi-2212 wires in an overpressure furnace and investigating the microstructure of the superconductor after the heat treatment.
