People in the lab: Andy Campbell is an Asst. Professor in the University of Maryland's Department of Geology. He oversees the Laboratory for Mineral Physics.    Graduate student Noah Miller is "beaming" in front of the optical table.    Greg Shofner, graduate student. Action photo at NSLS! Rebecca Fischer, a visitor from Northwestern for the summer, enjoying a late night at APS.       Oluchi Ofoha, a UMd physics major, showing off a diamond anvil cell.        Former group members:   Helen Nguyen was a University of Maryland undergraduate, majoring in Geology. Here she is loading a sample in a diamond anvil cell. Helen melted silicates at high pressure for her senior thesis project. Tommy Tamarkin, a UMd chemical engineering major, improved the way we load samples in the diamond anvil cell. Tommy is now a graduate student in Geology at UMd, working in the Laboratory for Rock Physics.    Graham Taylor, an intern from the Science and Technology Program at Eleanor Roosevelt High School, is shown here processing x-ray diffraction data. Graham  won the Earth Sciences competition at the 2007 Prince George's County Regional Science Fair, for his fine efforts in the Laboratory for Mineral Physics. Now he's a physics major at UMd. Rob Thomas (UMd undergraduate) worked on a collaborative project between our lab and Yingwei Fei's laboratory at the Carnegie Institution of Washington. Rob is now in graduate school at UCLA.
