The Department of Chemical Engineering is pleased to welcome you to hear Professor Eliza Fong discuss her work leveraging biomaterials engineering to build in vitro patient tumors that more closely reflect critical cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions in the tumor microenvironment. She will describe how growing cells in the third dimension influences the cancer cell phenotype and changes drug sensitivity. Her research will improve therapeutic opportunities for cancer patients.

Please join us to hear a webinar by Professor Alison Scott (PhD ‘19), winner of the 2020 Park and Veva Reilly ChE Medal for Proficiency in Research. She will discuss her work on a general framework for the design of polymeric materials, which maximizes experimental resources and optimizes the resulting polymer product’s suitability for its intended application. Professor Scott will discuss two distinct (yet related) case studies to demonstrate that the framework can be useful in many industries and applications and for any type of polymeric material.

Register for this FREE, 4-week Mental Toughness program (1 virtual workshop/week on Mondays 6:00-7:30 pm, starting November 2, 2020). The program is tailored for women-identifying students, where you will learn how to cope with the stress and anxiety you face from living your life as a student, how to budget properly so that you can have financial freedom later, what skills you need to develop to become the leader you want to be (and how to develop them), and the truth behind health, nutrition and your body weight.
