The Ralph O’Connor Sustainable Energy Institute (ROSEI) is hosting its third in-person summit on January 15 from 8:30 AM – 6 PM. Like
2024’s iteration, the event will take place on the Homewood campus in Hodson Hall, with free lunch for attendees and speakers being served. All are welcome!
The ROSEI Summit provides a technical sharing of all sustainable energy and related research being conducted at Johns Hopkins. It will be an overview of ROSEI activities and technical sessions organized around the active topics of our scholars. The Summit provides a unique means to understand the breadth and depth of JHU research in sustainable energy as well as develop collaborations and new networks for future research.
This year, speakers at the Summit will be ROSEI faculty, as well as researchers from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab (APL). The technical sessions will consist of 15 minute talks, no papers are required, and a slide template will be provided in early January. There will also be a student poster session/competition as well.
You may email
Benjamin Link, ROSEI's Deputy Director, if you are a JHU faculty member or APL researcher that is interested in presenting at this year's Summit.
Undergraduate and graduate students are eligible to participate in the poster session/competition, as are postdoctoral fellows. Interested students should email
