AEM Welcome Seminar w/ Prof. Perry Leo

Welcome Back!

The first meeting of the Fall 2025 Seminar Series (AEM 8000) will be a welcome speech from AEM Department Head, Professor Perry Leo.

Professor Leo studies phase transformation, pattern formation and material properties in complex, multiphase solids. Leo and his group use theoretical and numerical analysis to couple formation of microstructure in these materials to their properties, such as strength, fracture and fatigue resistance, and electrical and magnetic response. Leo’s work encompasses a range of materials, including composite materials, biological materials, metal alloys and liquid crystals.
