Shaowu Pan, Ph.D., assistant professor of mechanical, aerospace, and nuclear engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), has recently received two prestigious awards recognizing his work to solve some of engineering’s most difficult challenges.
Todd Przybycien, Ph.D., professor of chemical and biological engineering at RPI, has been named head of RPI’s Howard P. Isermann Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering (CBE). Under Przybycien’s leadership, the department will continue to drive innovation in sustainable biopharmaceutical manufacturing, metabolic and enzyme engineering, advanced materials development, transport processes, and process systems engineering.
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) has appointed Pingkun Yan, Ph.D., the P.K. Lashmet Career Development Chair Associate Professor at the Department of Biomedical Engineering at RPI, as head of the Department of Biomedical Engineering.
RPI scientists played a pivotal role in the development of a new manufacturing technique that could revolutionize infrared detection technology, potentially making thermal imaging devices cheaper, smaller, more accurate and far more affordable.
Researchers at RPI’s schools of science and engineering are exploring new ways to manipulate matter with light to unlock a new generation of computer chips, photovoltaic cells and other advanced materials.
