Tim and Steve caught up with Dr. Avi Bregman at the TMS meeting. Avi is at the Applied Physics Lab at Johns Hopkins University. He is the section supervisor for Materials Discovery there. He talked about his journey to Materials Science and his career path after getting his PhD. He talked about the work he is currently doing. Avi also told us about his company that helps smaller universities get research funding, especially those that do not have the administrative staff to handle the details of actually getting the funds to the University.
