My year in C&EN 2013

Below are the notable mentions that my father, our 

company, our Local Section/Division and/or I received 

in 2013 in Chemical and Engineering News. 


The two day symposium that I co-organized with members of the American Chemical Society Ag and Food Division and AGRO Division, garnered media coverage by the ACS Pressroom as a featured Press Conference and Press Release as well as a C&EN Cover Story.
