Keith Tyo has been selected as the recipient of the 2013 ISEN Early Career Investigator Award.
The innovative research of Northwestern professors who are making a difference in synthetic biology has been recognized with two early-stage discovery awards from Grand Challenges Explorations, an initiative funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
A team of McCormick students took top honors last month at a regional competition for iGEM, an undergraduate synthetic biology competition.
Jewett will use the award to advance his research on developing cell-free synthetic biology for biomanufacturing new classes of life-saving drugs, sustainable fuels and novel materials from renewable resources.
With the award, Jewett aims to reconceptualize the way we engineer biology for producing next generation materials.
Michael Jewett has received the Agilent Early Career Professor Award from Agilent Technologies Inc. in recognition of excellence in measurement research in the field of systems biology.
Joshua Leonard testified on June 29 to the House Committee on Science and Technology’s Subcommittee on Research and Science Education at a hearing designed to examine the future of the biological sciences.
