TAGGED Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering

Summer in Belgium

Last summer, Rayyan Gorashi ’19 had a bucket list-worthy few months, hiking the French Alps, cheering on the Belgium national team in the FIFA World Cup, and problem-solving unanticipated setbacks as a research intern at imec.

‘Pushing Pause’ in Cellular Mechanics

Denis Wirtz, vice provost for research, says unifying the field of cell mechanics around a common set of approaches will make it more valuable to the larger cancer research community.

Clancy Heads Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering

Paulette Clancy is one of the country’s leaders in the study of atomic-and molecular-scale modeling of materials, especially semiconducting materials ranging from traditional, silicon-based compounds to all-organic materials.

Changing Lives With Clean Water

The need for clean water and sanitation is a given for health. However, having access to these necessities is far from assured in the developing world.

Putting the Brakes on Cancer

A team led by Johns Hopkins researchers has discovered a biochemical signaling process that causes densely packed cancer cells to break away from a tumor and spread the disease elsewhere in the body.

A Gilded Future?

Johns Hopkins Engineering researchers are borrowing from the ancient Egyptian tradition of gilding to make fuel cells and other renewable energy technologies cheaper, better, and more sustainable.
