Past Summer Research Students in Eng Phys!
Samantha Scarfe, Student Research Assistant with Dr. Fang
In Dr. Fang’s group I am studying ways of implementing optical technologies such as digital holography into optofluidic devices that can be used for point of care applications, such as urinalysis. We aim to be able to image biomarkers such as bacteria and blood cells with a resolution of 1-10 microns using holographic techniques.
Devan Wagner, Undergraduate Summer Researcher with Dr. Luxat
Devan worked with Dr. Luxat on a simulation package to address the electricity needs of Canada, and how the nuclear industry can meet the growing demand. This program allows the user to input nearly every variable describing different types of nuclear reactors and their associated fuel cycles. The program determines things such as the best type, and the number of reactors to deploy in any given year in order to minimize costs or wasted supply. Meanwhile, the entire fuel cycle is tracked, which allows us to examine areas for further improvement with fuel reprocessing and recycling. Lastly, he modeled the nuclear reactions occurring in the reactor and after discharge so we can get an accurate picture of the waste and address the issue of long term storage. This project has allowed Devan to use both Engineering Physics and Engineering Management knowledge to address problems in the areas of reactor physics, software development, as well as economics.
Rita Waseem, Student Research Assistant with Dr. Fang
In Dr. Fang's group, I am currently working alongside Nehad Hermiz, a PhD candidate in the biomedical engineering department. I am using the Lifetime Fluorescence Microscopy and Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) to study protein interactions.
Amit Rao, Summer Research Assistant with Dr. LaPierre
Summer research with Dr. LaPierre was fantastic. I had the ability to learn and test new techniques such as using the scanning electron microscope; which was quite exciting as you are able to image samples and patterns that are on the scale of nanometers, yet the images are very clear and distinct. These techniques can be applied to many forms of research and industry techniques. Working on my research project was extremely fun as I encountered many different variables affecting the results and figuring out to solve those obstacles is what made the project interesting.
Mitch Lemieux, Research Assistant with Dr. Nagasaki
Dr. Nagasaki is currently researching how Selenium (an element commonly found in spent nuclear fuel), interacts with different minerals found in the Canadian Shield. My duties during the summer included setting up experiments to measure the adsorption and absorption of Selenium on these minerals, as well as running computer simulations to compare with our experimental results. The end goal of this research is to enable the safe, long-term storage of spent fuel in the deep geological repository being built in Ontario.
Diana Dumitrescu, Summer Research Student with Dr. Turak
Research Assistance with Dr. Turak
My project focused on the synthesis of tin oxide nanoparticles through reverse micelles and the strategies for controlling their planar arrangements. Our goal was to achieve a highly ordered array (as close to a hexagonal lattice as possible), in order to leave the least amount of gaps and maximizing the density of the deposited nanoparticles. My job was to perform a series of experiments, supported by methods discussed in the literature, to modify the spatial arrangement of the micelles. Working over the summer was a fantastic experience and allowed me to learn many lessons that cannot be taught in the classroom.
Morgan Richard, Student Research Assistant with Dr. Fang
Research Assistance with Dr. Fang
The engineering physics group I am working with is developing a multiplexed confocal high content imaging system, designed to surpass spinning disc confocal microscopy and provide new methods to image biological systems. My work on the project is to assist in the development of this system, primarily through programming hardware control, user interfaces, and also troubleshooting unexpected behaviors in optical systems. Throughout the summer and into the year I have met amazing coworkers who have helped me develop my understanding of photonics and programming. These coworkers helped me break down many optics focused papers, and kept the direction of the project well defined when issues arose. I find this work extremely fulfilling as it gives me a chance to develop my understanding of optics, explore new aspects of biophotonics, and develop my skills in programming. I am learning very useful skills that encompass the complete design and construction of a system and would recommend anybody who’s given the opportunity to make the most out of it because it can be a life-changing experience.

The Department of Engineering Physics specializes in biophotonics and biosensors. Biophotonics uses light for applications in medicine, biomedical engineering, life sciences, agriculture, and environmental science. The term biophotonics refers to a combination of biology and photonics, which is the science and technology of the generation, manipulation, and detection of photons. Photons are the quantum mechanical units of light. Biophotonics is being used for the study of biological molecules, cells and tissues for disease detection, diagnosis, and treatment. Engineering Physics is also involved in the development and application of micro- and nano-sensors for the detection of DNA, proteins, viruses, and other biological materials. On this tour, you will explore our cleanroom fabrication facilities and see how our Engineering Physics students fabricate biomedical sensors.
Nuclear Reactor Tour (60 minutes):
McMaster University’s nuclear reactor is the only large (5 Megawatts) nuclear reactor on a University campus, in operation since 1959. It is the second largest nuclear reactor at a University in North America. Bertram Brockhouse (Physics Nobel Laureate) completed some of his ground-breaking work using McMaster’s nuclear reactor. Like Bertram Brockhouse, Engineering Physics students perform experiments using McMaster’s nuclear reactor. On this tour, you will go inside our working nuclear reactor and see how nuclear energy is put to work.
Note: At least 2 weeks advance notice is required. Reactor tours require some planning before the event to get the appropriate parent/guardian consent (if the student is alone) and ensure that the prospective students have appropriate clothing for the reactor (flat, closed shoes and pants are the main requirements). The students (and anyone joining a tour) must have valid government ID.
Solar Energy Tour (20 minutes):
In addition to nuclear energy, Engineering Physics specializes in photovoltaic energy (solar electricity), which is the conversion of sunlight to electricity. On this tour, you will see the tools used for making a solar cell, understand how a solar cell works, and see the working solar cells fabricated by Engineering Physics students.
Nanotechnology Tour (20 minutes):
Devices that are constructed on the nanometre or micrometre scale are the technological backbone of the modern age of computers and high-tech communications. Since the introduction of the integrated circuit in the 1960’s, device components have decreased in size and cost at an exponential rate, while increasing in speed and capabilities. The rapid advances in computer capabilities have transformed the worldwide economy and have led to a more prosperous society. On this tour, you will experience a working cleanroom where nano-devices are being fabricated. See a micro-drone, a worm sorter, and other nano-devices.
