Supervisor: Professor Mario Ioannidis, Chemical Engineering

Bhoomi Mavani will be doing her PhD Comprehensive on Wednesday, March 15, 2023. This is a closed session. Her thesis Proposal Title is Polymeric Gas Sensing Materials for Detection of Toxic Analytes.

Bahareh Arab will be doing her PhD defence on Tuesday January 24th, 2023. This is a closed session. Her thesis proposal title is A Toolkit for Effective and Successive Genome Engineering of Escherichia coli.

This defense will take place online.

You are welcome to attend David Dency's PhD Comprehensive when they will discuss Biomaterial mediated therapeutic approach to treat multiple thrombotic occlusions in peripheral artery disease.

You are invited to attend Jing Sy's MASc oral exam. Jing Sy will discuss Plant-Based Cheese Analogues and Value-Added, High-Fiber Soymilk Gels Containing Okara.

You are welcome to join the department as Sima Lashkari defends her Ph.D. thesis, which explores a newly discovered approach which utilizes non-ionic surfactants to deliver non-surface active, hydrophobic ILs to the surface of dispersed graphene oxide (GO) and rGO. When these IL decorated sheets are cast as electrodes, the adsorbed layer is expected to define the electrolyte-filled pore space, potentially maximizing the electrode capacitance.

You are invited to attend Mina Rafieishishavan's PhD defense, where she will discuss a practical and systematic method for integrating design and control that she has applied to medium-scale and large-scale applications.

Sileola Ogunlaja will be defending their research into the effects of nanoparticle interfacial additives on phase inversion of Pickering emulsion during a closed-door PhD defense session.

Supervisors: 

Christine Moresoli, Chemical Engineering
Alexander Penlidis, Chemical Engineering
