Jonathan Wheeler (BS Physics; Math Studies, BSE Engineering 2016) has been published as first author on a paper in the IEEE Journal of Lightwave Technology. The paper, entitled Optimizing Coherence Suppression in a Laser Broadened by Phase Modulation With Noise is also available on the arXiv and describes methods for making laser light incoherent.

Jonathan Wheeler is a graduate student at Stanford, pursuing a PhD in Electrical Engineering. He works at Stanford's Ginzton Laboratory on the technologies necessary for fiber optic gyroscopes.

High school students are invited to join us for this remote yet interactive STEM experience. Design, problem-solve, build, connect with others, and be challenged by participating in lab activities with teammates. These STEM labs will require materials that can be found easily and are safe to do at home.

Earn points by completing each activity. Team members are encouraged to connect with each other and work together prior to submitting their final solutions/projects. Prizes will be given to the teams that earn the most points and scholarships to all those who participate.

Registration deadline is Monday, Sept. 14, 2020. Register at andrews.edu/scifest.

The STEM Division presents a live STEM Show on Sunday, Sept. 13, at 7 p.m. Join us for an interactive experience, learn about STEM career possibilities, and interact with Andrews University faculty. Free livestreamed event designed for students in elementary, middle and high school. Parents and grandparents are also invited to join the fun.
