DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThe Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (A
 RPA-E) was established within the US Department of Energy to solve the cri
 tical energy needs of the United States. Our work is to identify and fund 
 the development of disruptive technologies that have the potential to tran
 sform our energy system capacity and enhance industrial operations\, but f
 or which the financial risks of development are too great to attract inves
 tment from existing industries or other agencies within the US government.
  In this talk\, we will explain the work that ARPA-E does and advertise tw
 o opportunities within ARPA-E: (1) the Summer Scholars program and (2) the
  ARPA-E Fellowship. The Summer Scholars program is an 8–12-week paid sum
 mer internship for MBA and graduate students to work on commercialization-
 focused energy projects. Selected applicants will work closely with ARPA-E
 ’s Tech-to-Market Advisors\, Program Directors\, and Fellows to transiti
 on early-stage disruptive technologies into commercial products and/or ser
 vices. The ARPA-E Fellowship is a 2-year federal employee position for rec
 ent PhDs to identify solutions to urgent energy problems\, engage in new A
 RPA-E program development\, and support existing ARPA-E programs. This pre
 sentation will be given by two current ARPA-E Fellows\, Alina Lapotin and 
 Peter Dotti.\n\nBios\n\nDr. Peter Dotti serves as a Fellow at the Advanced
  Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E). He is interested in technologie
 s for enhanced manufacturing supply chains\, including mineral extraction\
 , metals production\, semiconductor fabrication\, and quantum industry dev
 elopment\, as well as technologies for electrical power systems that incre
 ase energy generation\, storage\, and transmission. His PhD work was in at
 omic\, molecular\, and optical physics at UC Santa Barbara.\n\nDr. Alina L
 aPotin serves as a Fellow at the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy 
 (ARPA-E). Her interests are in heat transfer\, energy conversion\, industr
 ial heat\, and nuclear energy technologies. For her doctoral work at MIT\,
  she demonstrated efficient and power-dense thermophotovoltaics under high
 -temperature emitters and designed and built a solar-driven atmospheric wa
 ter harvesting system.  Prior to joining ARPA-E\, she developed laser furn
 aces at Limelight Steel.
