Overview

Sariah D’Empaire-Salomon is a graduate student in the Interdisciplinary Materials Science program, performing research in the Adams Lab at the intersection of materials science, biomechanics, and neurotrauma. Her work focuses on developing biofidelic human head surrogates using soft polymer and hydrogel materials to study how primary blast waves and impact loading contribute to traumatic brain injury and blast-induced damage. Sariah is excited about how nanoscience, advanced materials, and fabrication tools can be leveraged to design better protective systems for warfighters and first responders.
