ChE Student Wins Best Oral Presentation Award at ICNANO 2018
1st year Chemical Engineering PhD student Ada Vernet received an award for the Best Oral Presentation at the 3rd Baltic Conference Series: International Conference on Nanomaterials & Nanotechnology (ICNANO) 2018 in Stockholm, Sweden. The award was given for her research presentation entitled: “Synthesis and characterization of tellurium nanowire using both chemical and green routes and their comparison in terms of biocompatibility and anticancer properties”.
Ada is currently in Prof. Webster’s Nanomedicine Lab, mainly working on the green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles for biomedical applications. After she received her PhD, Ada hopes to extend her career into the biomedical applications of nanoparticles with the aim to achieve some useful materials that can change biomedicine.
Congratulations on this accomplishment Ada!
