Advised by ECE Associate Professor W. Alan Doolittle, Mr. Greenlee's research interests include the fabrication, characterization, and numerical modeling of lithium-based memristors. A memristor is a resistor whose resistance depends on previous input to the device and emulates the synapses in the brain. The development of lithium-based memristors could ultimately usher in a new era of devices that compute similarly to the brain.

Administered by the American Society for Engineering Education, the NDSEG Fellowship is sponsored and funded by the Department of Defense (DoD). NDSEG selections are made by the Air Force Research Laboratory/Air Force Office of Scientific Research, the Office of Naval Research, the Army Research Office, and the DoD High Performance Computing Modernization Program Office.
