AIChE Annual Meeting
2016
2016 AIChE Annual Meeting
Meet the Faculty Candidate Poster Session – Sponsored by the Education Division
Poster Session: Meet the Faculty Candidate - Food, Pharmaceutical & Bioengineering
Sunday, November 13, 2016 - 1:00pm to 3:30pm
Research Interests:
- Novel systems biology algorithms to analyze Biomedical Big Data--massive and diverse datasets capturing complex biological interactions and are difficult to analyze using conventional data analysis methods.
- Multiscale models of metabolism, protein expression, and regulation, and multiscale optimization of bioprocesses.
- Antimicrobial strategies using systems biology models and multiple â??omics data (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, epigenomics.
- Computer-aided microbe design for value-added chemicals, nutrients for animal feed, and therapeutic proteins.
Teaching Interests:
- 6 years of Teaching Assistant experience for Process Dynamics and Control
- Certification for completion of a 15-hour course on teaching university courses (at UCSD)
- I make appropriate use of active learning techniques, where student learning is facilitated using in-class clicker (real-time survey) questions on complex concepts that activate existing knowledge, identify misconceptions, and improve knowledge retention. Additional modern pedagogical methods will be used, including the inverted classroom and a balance of formative (ongoing or real-time) assessment and summative (exams, final presentations, etc.) assessment.
