A novel drug delivery technique has nanoparticles thumbing for a ride aboard red blood cells. This promising work comes from researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara, who presented their findings at the 2012 Annual Meeting in Pittsburgh.
“Meeting Current Challenges in Therapeutic Protein Technical Development” is the theme of SBE's 3rd International Conference on Accelerating Biopharmaceutical Development & Quality by Design in Biologics (QbD).
The AIChE Midwest Regional Conference (MRC) provides an opportunity for engineers and scientists in the region to learn about new technologies and network with others in the field.
ICBE brings together researchers who are using quantitative approaches to advance the understanding and application of molecular biology. Call for papers ends November 12!
The AIChE Spring Meeting is the year’s key technical conference for practicing chemical engineers.
The U.S. is highly dependent on foreign countries for rare earth elements (REEs) and strategic and critical materials (S&CMs). Dr. Tedd Lister and Dr. Eric Peterson of the Idaho National Laboratory propose “urban mining” to address the concerns associated with traditional mining.
This year's Corporate Innovation Award winner was Corning Incorporated. In the award lecture, Marc Giroux of Corning addressed the link between chemical engineering and the technology behind innovations in glass and ceramics.
ChEnected sat down with Eleftherios Terry Papoutsakis prior to his acceptance of the Jay Bailey Award to discuss his research and thoughts on the field of biological engineering.
More than 80 young professionals gathered at The Library on Pittsburgh's South Side for the joint YP-SIOC Social co-sponsored by the Young Professionals Committee (YPC) and the Societal Impact Operating Council (SIOC). Check out the photos of this exercise and other fun we had at the event below in the slideshow.
Professor Guy Marin of Ghent University, Belgium, is professor in chemical reaction engineering and directs the Laboratory for chemical technology. He is this year's Danckwerts Lecture, and his lecture is titled "Chemical Engineering and Kinetics: A Pas de Deux of Theory And Experiment."
I had the opportunity to catch up with just a few of the ChemE Car teams during their poster sessions and asked them what was the most enjoyable part of the project and competition for them. Following are a few of the responses.
Months of hard work all came down to the final two runs Sunday afternoon for competitors and their Chem-E-Cars. Cornell University beat out 2011 defending champions University of Puerto Rico. Check out the slideshow and results.
Every year, Institute and Board of Directors’ Awards are presented at the AIChE Honors Ceremony. These are AIChE’s most prestigious awards, honoring eminent chemical engineers for career accomplishments, service to society, and service to the Institute.
While Fukushima has had an extraordinary effect on nuclear energy, it's still with us and there's a lot changing. Hear how the industry is evolving and where it's headed.
We had a chance to catch up with some of the 2012 National Chem-E-Car teams at the Poster Session. We interviewed University of Akron, Bucknell University, Carnegie Mellon, and University of Pittsburgh.
We had a chance to catch up with some of the 2012 National Chem-E-Car teams at the Poster Session. Below are interviews we did with Cornell University (this year's National Competition winners), University of Houston, University of Maryland, University of Puerto Rico, and University of South Florida.
