About Me
I am a freshman in the Pratt School of Engineering here at Duke University. I am from Miami, FL and went to an all girls Sacred Heart School.
Name Pronunciation
My name is Elizabeth Masson. My family pronounces my first name "eee-liz-uh-beth" and we pronounce our last name "may-son" (the same way you say mason jar). The correct way to say Masson is the French pronunciation of "muh-sawn".

Powering the Planet: Chemical Challenges in Solar Energy Utilization
Lewis, Nathan S., and Daniel G. Nocera. "Powering the Planet: Chemical Challenges in Solar Energy Utilization — PNAS." Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. PNAS, 16 Oct. 2006. Web. 23 Sept. 2010. <http://www.pnas.org/content/103/43/15729.full.pdf html>.
Favorite Demonstration
My favorite MATLAB demonstration was the "Earth's topography" demo. I thought it was very interesting to see how MATLAB generates a 3-dimensional model of the Earth in full color!
