In this seminar, I will present my work showcasing the power of RNA and nanotechnology in manipulating microbial interactions with the environment and plant hosts.
I will demonstrate that by designing an enzyme to fuse to a solid support material, we can vastly improve its stability and recover the material between reactions for multiple uses.
In this talk, I will share examples from our work on the computational discovery and design of functional materials, as well as modeling of defect and doping properties of semiconductors.
With respect to the design of green solvents, this talk will illustrate how Bara and collaborators are utilizing molecules with glycerol “skeletons” to tackle challenges in CO2 capture (including direct air capture (DAC)), batteries, plastic wastes, additive manufacturing, and extractions of lithium and other critical materials from dilute sources.
You are invited to attend The Chemical Engineering Graduate Programs Open House on Tuesday, March 5 from 10:00am-11:00am on Zoom! This is an exciting way to learn about the different programs and research areas from our Academic Coordinator and Associate Director of MS Programs. Come explore all the opportunities available in the Chemical Engineering department including […]
Here, by measurement of elasto-capillary effects during cell adhesion, growth and motion, we demonstrate that interfacial and bulk parameters violate equilibrium constraints and exhibit anomalous effects, which depend upon a distance from equilibrium.
Our group incorporates metabolic engineering and systems biology approaches in combination with biochemical and molecular biology measurements to identify targets and disease biomarkers. To modulate these targets and pathway we are concomitantly developing polymeric-based drug delivery systems.
Professional organizations (POs) are established communities that significantly influence the competencies and values of engineers, but the impact of their interaction with academia on undergraduate education is not fully understood.
Soft Matter Days: April 8-17, will feature invited guest speakers discussing a variety of interdisciplinary topics in soft matter and complex fluids. These topics sit at the interface of chemical & mechanical engineering, materials science, physics, chemistry, and biology. Guest speakers will discuss real-world phenomena found in food, blood flow, and granular materials. Two talks […]
