Wyatt Panaccione

I am a PhD student in Nuclear Engineering at The Ohio State University, where I have been awarded the SMART scholarship sponsored by the Missile Defense Agency. My research focuses on radiation effects in electronics and rad-hard testing of components. I also have a background in 2D materials research, specifically graphene and hBN synthesis methods. In my graduate work, I am involved in the fabrication and testing of perovskite-based radiation detectors, particularly for neutron and gamma detection. I have conducted multiple experiments at the Ohio State Research Reactor facilities, enhancing my expertise in radiation detection techniques and testing.
