Enrique Del Barco has been named a 2022 Pegasus Professor, a UCF honor that recognizes individuals that exhibit national and international excellence in research. Del Barco is currently developing a molecule that is able to learn behaviors, similar to a neuron. He has also published over 90 research papers.
“We put a molecule in between two electrodes and pass currents through it and see how the current behaves, then we explore functionality that comes from the quantum mechanical behavior from these molecules for use in things like switches,” Del Barco said. “We are working on a molecule that learns behaviors like a neuron in your brain.”
