978-3-031-39403-4 (ISBN)
This book provides an overview of recent research in the area of advanced materials for improving human healthcare, protecting the environment and alternative energy resources. The authors analyze and deliver viable technical solutions, demonstrating how chemistry and engineering can collectively solve technical and societal challenges. The book explores innovative technology for the synthesis of complex carbohydrates & glycoproteins, new drug development & delivery, theragnostics of infectious disease and cancer. It also provides insights into the nature of energy extraction, management and usage related to fossil fuels and sustainable energy. The book brings together a group of dynamic and productive scientists, engineers, and other professionals in celebration of the 40th Anniversary of Chinese American Chemical Society. It is a valuable resource for all readers interested in the study of materials to address society's increasing need forelectrical and chemical energy.
lt;p>Marinda Li Wu has over 45 years of experience in the chemical industry. She worked many years in research for Dow Chemical R&D where she earned 7 U.S. patents and as a business leader for Dow Plastics. Dr. Wu subsequently held management roles at several smaller chemical companies. As a strong advocate of STEM education, she founded "Science is Fun!" to interest young students in science and enhance public support for science education. Dr. Wu has served in many leadership roles for the American Chemical Society including President (2013), Board of Directors (2006-2014), Councilor (1996-present) and Chair of CEPA, the Committee on Economic and Professional Affairs (2003-2005). Dr. Wu has also served on numerous other national ACS committees and ACS Board Committees. She has helped countless chemists as a certified ACS career consultant for almost 30 years. At her local ACS California Section, Dr. Wu was a 2001 centennial chair, the chair of the Women Chemists Committee (WCC) four times, the chair for the Government Affairs Committee (GAC), the chair or a member of over half a dozen other committees and continues to serve on the CALACS Executive Committee.
Wei Gao is a fellow in Analytical Science, Corporate Research and Development, at the Dow Chemical Company. She received her B.S. degree from Fudan University and Ph.D. in Polymer Chemistry and Physics from Peking University. She then worked as a postdoctoral fellow and an associate professor at the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences. In 2006, Wei joined Rohm and Haas/Dow. She intensively works on polymer and particle characterization, the synthesis-structure-property relationship of polymeric and colloidal systems and sustainable polymers. As an active member and alternate council for Polymer Division of American Chemical Society (ACS), she has organized ACS symposia in the areas of Separation and Characterization of Macromolecules and Particles, Polymer Sciences for Everyday Things, Polymer Colloids, Industrial Innovation of Polymer Science and Natural Polymers. She is a lifetime member of Chinese American Chemical Society (CACS).
Dr. Lei Li is an associate professor in the Department of Chemical & Petroleum Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh. He obtained his bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from Tsinghua University in 1994. Three years later, he received his master's degree in polymer science from Tsinghua University. In 2001, he received his Ph.D. degree in Macromolecular Science and Engineering from the University of Michigan. After spending nine years at Seagate Technology LLC as a postdoc, a research staff member, a research manager and a Sr. research manager, Dr. Li started his academic career at the University of Pittsburgh in 2010. Dr. Li's research focuses on surface, interface, 2D materials and ultrathin films, ranging from polymer nanocoatings, graphene surface and ionic liquid nanofilms to 3D-printed membrane for water treatment. His work has been published in high-impact journals, including Nature Materials, Accounts of Chemical Research, ACS Nano and Chemical Science. Dr. Li also holds ten U.S. patents. As the principal investigator, Dr. Li has directed projects supported by NSF, Department of Energy, ACS Petroleum Research Funds and Advanced Storage Research Consortium. Currently, Dr. Li serves as the 2021 president for CACS.
Jasmine Lu is currently a general manager at Viwit Pharmaceuticals. Prior to joining Viwit in 2022, she was the director of Alliance Management at Atomwise, a preclinical pharma company revolutionizing how drugs are discovered with AI. In addition, she worked for the US Innovation Center of Shimadzu, a top-five global instrumentation company, and AcceleDev, a US-Sino CDMO company, as the director of Project Management. Her earlier careers include Senior Medicinal Chemist in Morphochem and Pharmacopeia Drug Discovery, focusing on drug discovery for oncology and immunosuppress
