Seminar Title: The Role of Mammary Tissue Damage in Breast Cancer Recurrence and Metastasis Location: 108 Snell Engineering Center Abstract: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) recurrence rates remain high despite aggressive therapeutic intervention, including surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiotherapy. Recent studies suggest that circulating tumor cell recruitment rather than persistent tumor cells in the irradiated […]

Chemical Engineering Fall Seminar Series: Micheál Scanlon

Seminar Title: Electrosynthesis of Conducting Polymer Thin Films at a Polarizable Liquid | Liquid Interface Location: 108 Snell Engineering Center Abstract: The broken symmetry of a liquid|liquid interface is ideal for the electrosynthesis of dimensionally confined nanomaterials, i.e., thin films. Certain liquid|liquid interfaces are electrochemically active. Tuning the electric field provides a powerful external stimulus […]
