>>>HGWISE INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH CAREER PANELThurs, Nov 8th, 4:00-5:00pm, followed by a reception with panelistsJefferson 256Join HGWISE for its fall career panel on industrial research. It will be a great opportunity to understand the ins and outs of working as a scientist in the industry, explore the differences between academic and industrial research as well as learn about the individual career journeys of our panelists and to network! The panel will feature:Dr. Aimee Usera, Investigator II/Lab Head at Novartis Institute for Biomedical ResearchAimee received her PhD at John Hopkins in synthetic organic chemistry and did her post-doc at MIT under Prof. Sarah O'Connor. Her current team at Novartis is involved in the chemical biology field of drug design and research, investigating and applying novel methods of protein modification to various therapeutic goals. Her group's work spans across many disease areas (DAs) including ophthalmology, vaccines, oncology, and cardiovascular metabolism.Laura Brattain, Technical Staff at Bioengineering Systems and Technologies Group, MIT Lincoln LaboratoryLaura is also a PhD student at Harvard Biorobotics Laboratory under the guidance of Prof. Robert Howe. Her research interests include: medical image processing, medical device design and telemedicine.Dr. Stacy Lynn Reeder, Senior Research Scientist, Schlumberger-Doll ResearchStacy attended the University of Miami where she earned a BS in physics, mathematics, and marine science. She did her PhD in Marine Geology at the same school. Her current research is aimed at getting the most information out of down-hole measurements to best interpret the subsurface in complex environments. The Reservoir Geoscience Department has a heavy focus on understanding shale oil using a combination of field, laboratory, and modeling techniques to quantify the geochemistry, geomechanics, petrophysics, and geology measured with different physical measurements.Carlijn Mulder, PhD, Senior Research Engineer at Saint-GobainCarlijn started as a Senior Research Engineer at Saint-Gobain in January 2012. Here she is responsible for research and development of nano- and micron-sized ceramic and diamond particles. These particles are used for many application, such as optical coatings, fixed diamond wire saws, and for creating atomically flat surfaces by polishing. She is located in a large (350 people) Saint-Gobain R&D site in Northborough, MA. Carlijn received her PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT in 2011. Here her researched focused on solar energy and the optical properties of organic semiconductors. Before that she obtained a Bachelor and Master degree from Delft University of Technology in Applied Physics and an extra minor in Management of Technology.
