| James M. Howe | | Professor, Materials Science and Engineering | | Director, Electron Microscope Facility | | Ph.D., University of California at Berkeley | | | | Dr. Howe joined the faculty in 1991. He has published more than 170 technical papers, two conference proceedings and two textbooks, one on material interfaces and a second on transmission electron microscopy. He is on the Board of Review of Metallurgical and Materials Transactions, has served as chair of the Phase Transformations Committee of ASM International, and as a consultant to the Department of Defense. He received a Presidential Young Investigator Award from the National Science Foundation, a Humboldt Senior Research Award from the von Humboldt Foundation, the Materials Research Silver Medal from ASM International and is a Fellow of ASM International. | | | | Research Interests | | James Howe's current research emphasizes the application of high-resolution analytical transmission electron microscope techniques to study the mechanisms and kinetics of phase transformations and the structure of interphase boundaries at the atomic level. | | |
