# Group 1 Meeting 6 Minutes

**Attendees**: Thanh Nguyen, Samyog Adikhari, Chenyang Qiu, Hanpu Liu, Esther Liubarski,
Kelland O’Reilly, Kourosh Gharbi, Zory Davoyan, Harry Gui, Rikuo Hasegawa

**Chair**: Zory Davoyan

**Minutes**: Rikuo Hasegawa

Agenda:
- Report on progress of each section
- Show draft of poster

## Introductory theory and origins of Magnetic & Electric properties.

Discussion on computer simulation of ME constant for various form factors, found that the ME constant can be controlled by modulating the dimensions of an ellipsoid of Bismuth Ferrite.

Discussion on urchin shaped Nickel coated with Barium Titanate. Discussion on electrical loss with protruding Nickel. 

Action item: how are urchin shaped nickel synthesized?

## Biomedical Application

Copper oxide not especially relevant.

## Characteristics of MENPs?

Show deeper level of understanding in the activation mechanisms for MENPs and explain the factors/variables used in paper better.

## Biocompatibility Assessment

Work on looking at other elements as well. Do not state more than what is in the literature and extropolate. State the institution names in full before using acronyms.

## Poster

Too much text.

CuO example maybe not good model example of MENP, alternatives are Bismuth Ferrite or Cobalt Ferrite with Barium Titanate.

Biomedical applications should focus more on the mechanisms for how MENPs activate and work on the disease.

## Characterisation of MENP

Discussion in preparation for the lab experiments for DLS of nanoparticle.
Use patents to show industry trends and share that information between group.
Focus on relevant characterization techniques and not _all_ of the techniques in the literature.

## Action items

- [ ] Final Report and poster deadlines are coming up soon so prepare them and send to Samyog for review ASAP
- [ ] Lab experiments
