When I heard about\nthis program I got very excited because I have been wanting to explore research\nin organic electronics for some time &#8211; and to be able to spend my last summer\nas an undergraduate abroad was just perfect. I arrived at UVM about two weeks ago\nand had the chance to experience some the neat things Burlington has to offer,\nsuch as great food and great views, before heading to Japan. While at UVM we\nlearned and read a lot about our research as well as about Japanese culture.\nMost of our days were very intensive with Japanese lessons in the morning and\nresearch in the afternoon. I learned a lot about the organic electronics research\nwith the guidance of Dr. Furis and Dr. White who also demonstrated experimental\ntechniques related to our projects to prepare us for the labs in Japan. Overall,\nthis has been a great start to the program and I can\u2019t wait to arrive in Yonezawa\ntomorrow and meet the other professors and students involved in this research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/mfuris\/files\/2019\/06\/Daniela_Sterling-Pond-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-65\" width=\"592\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/mfuris\/files\/2019\/06\/Daniela_Sterling-Pond-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/mfuris\/files\/2019\/06\/Daniela_Sterling-Pond-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/mfuris\/files\/2019\/06\/Daniela_Sterling-Pond-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/mfuris\/files\/2019\/06\/Daniela_Sterling-Pond-1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/mfuris\/files\/2019\/06\/Daniela_Sterling-Pond-1.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 592px) 100vw, 592px\" \/><figcaption>Hiking the Sterling Pond Trail (Stowe, Vermont) with fellow IRES members Chris Popham (Princeton-left) and Grayson Glosser (UVM-center)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Daniela Fontecha, UVM IRES Participant I\u2019m Daniela, a senior majoring in physics and chemistry at North Carolina State University.
