SUMMARY:Multicultural Students in STEM Expo
DESCRIPTION:SASE (Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers) and SHPE (Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers) are hosting the Multicultural Students in STEM Expo event. The idea of the Expo is to allow students to showcase the projects and research they have been working on\, potentially inspiring other students to develop their projects. We encourage students to apply with their class projects\, co-op projects\, and internship projects. If you happen to be participating in RISE\, we highly encourage you to table for this Expo as practice. If you happen to be looking for other students to join your projects\, this is a great opportunity to do so. \nThis event will be taking place on Thursday\, February 27th from 7-9 PM in the Curry Student Center Indoor Quad + Pit. \nAccepted presenters are expected to table for the entire duration of the Expo. Only undergraduate students can participate in this Expo\, and the opportunity is geared toward students from racial and ethnic minority groups. \nApplications will close on January 24th\, and notifications will shortly follow.

SUMMARY:DASSH (Designing Actionable Solutions for a Secure Homeland) Student Design Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Student teams will compete against other universities in the 3-day DASSH (Designing Actionable Solutions for a Secure Homeland) student design challenge. This annual event is co-sponsored by SENTRY and fellow Department of Homeland Security Center of Excellence\, the Center for Accelerating Operational Efficiency (CAOE). \nTeams will be presented with real-world problem scenarios related to homeland security and this year’s theme\, “Security in an AI World.” \nSubject matter experts mentor student teams as they design\, build\, and implement innovative solutions. Unlike other hackathons that focus on coding\, this challenge emphasizes finding real solutions\, regardless of the medium in which those solutions happen to be. \nTo conclude the event\, proposed solutions will be presented to the Department of Homeland Security leadership\, and cash prizes will be awarded to the top teams. \nEligibility: Graduate and undergraduate students affiliated with SENTRY\, CAOE\, SENTRY partner institutions\, or CAOE academic partners are invited to participate. \nRegistration: Teams can sign up right until the start of the event\, but teams that sign up by January 28th will receive a free event t-shirt. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Chemical Engineering Spring Seminar Series: Nikhil Nair
DESCRIPTION:Understanding and mitigating host-part incompatibilities during microbial engineering \nLocation: 135 Shillman Hall \nAbstract: One of our major goals is to elucidate and highlight the unexpected outcomes that result from modifying living systems and formalize them under the umbrella of “incompatibilities”. For example\, when multiple recombinant proteins are co-expressed in bacteria like E. coli\, the cellular growth rate reduces\, due to the burden of protein expression. However\, the same system can be considered an incompatibility between the resources used for protein synthesis and the bacterial host’s intrinsic resource demands for growth. Similarly\, when a recombinant enzyme is expressed in a recombinant host\, its off-target activity on host metabolites can result in the re-distribution of fluxes through a number of host metabolic pathways. While such activity is frequently filed under promiscuous enzymatic activity\, the same can be considered an incompatibility between the enzyme and the host’s metabolic network. We have spent significant effort in systematically exploring the origin of these numerous host-part incompatibilities (where\, the added component\, like recombinant protein\, is referred to as a biological “part”) in efforts to explain previously inexplicable experimental observations. By understanding the origins of incompatibilities\, our work has revealed fundamental insights into cellular physiology and enabled the development of more robust and efficient engineered biological systems. \n\nNik Nair (naa-year) received his B.S. in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from Cornell University (Ithaca\, NY) in 2003. While at Cornell\, he was a founding member and lead guitarist of the not-so-well-known progressive metal band called “Rubicon”. After graduation in 2003 and a brief stint at Bristol Myers Squibb\, where he worked as a manufacturing research scientist in biotechnology purification development\, he received his M.S. and Ph.D. in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign under the guidance of Prof. Huimin Zhao. He joined Tufts in 2013 after completing a 3-year postdoctoral fellowship in Microbiology and Immunobiology at the Harvard Medical School in Prof. Ann Hochschild’s lab. He was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 2020. He is a recipient of the 2016 NIH Director’s New Innovator Award. The Nair Synthetic Biology & Systems Bioengineering Lab focuses on two major areas of research – 1) biosynthesis of renewable fuels and chemicals from sustainable feedstocks\, and 2) engineering proteins and microbes to improve human health. In his spare time\, which is increasingly rare\, he likes to play guitar\, golf\, and video games and watch trashy TV shows like 90 Day Fiancé and Sister Wives. His long-term plans include starting several companies based on lab-developed technologies and eventually resurrecting “Rubicon” once his young sons are old enough to master their instruments (Kiran: guitar; Liam: keyboards).
