At the most recent convocation (Fall 2016), Stanislav Sokolenko of the Department of Chemical Engineering (supervised by Prof. Marc Aucoin), was highlighted as this year’s recipient of the Outstanding Achievement in Graduate Studies Award at the Doctoral level. Stanislav’s thesis, entitled “From metabolite concentration to flux - a systematic assessment of error in cell culture metabolomics”, has helped move the field of bioprocessing forward by actively combining metabolomic tools with the production of important biologics including virus-like particles (for use as vaccines) and antibodies (for use as cancer therapeutics).
