Ana C. Alba-Rubio specializes in designing and synthesizing catalysts, which are materials that speed chemical reactions. Some of her more recent work has focused on turning carbon dioxide into alcohol that could be used as fuel. The idea is to create a closed system so that carbon dioxide can be recycled instead of being released into […]
Clemson University researchers are helping lay the groundwork for computer simulations that could eventually be used to match cancer patients with the medicine that will help them get well. A team of 11 researchers that included six from Clemson recently reported on its work in the journal Nature Communications. The research is a step forward […]
In Dr. Ming Yang’s group, the current research projects in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions to value-added products through thermal and electrocatalysis are sponsored by NSF, NASA, and ACS. These research projects have become a fertile platform for graduate and undergraduate students to pursue their individual developments and to serve our community. In the past 2021-22 […]
Missoury Lytle is ending her second year of Ph.D. studies on a high note, receiving an award that recognizes her advocacy for women at Clemson University.

You might call Ricardo García Cárcamo of Clemson University a “model” student. Not only is Ricardo good at what he does, but he also works exclusively with computer models. Ricardo is a Ph.D. student in the lab of Dr. Rachel Getman, the Murdoch Family Endowed Associate Professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering. The students in […]
Ana Alba-Rubio received an NSF grant of $250,000 to fund research to continue the development of a sensor that will aid in the detection of cancer. Hydroxyl free radicals are found in the human body, but an excess of them can damage the cells resulting in serious health issues, including cancer, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s diseases. […]
Gov. Henry McMaster is honoring Jessica Larsen of Clemson University with an award that recognizes the research she is conducting to better understand and treat diseases of the central nervous system. Larsen, a Dean’s Assistant Professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, has won the 2022 Governor’s Young Scientist Award for Excellence in Scientific Research. “It’s […]
The Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering is proud to announce our senior award recipients for the class of 2022. Trinity Pominville was selected as the recipient of the Western S.C. Section AIChE Scholastic Achievement Award by the College of Engineering, Computing and Applied Sciences. Pominville served the department of chemical and biomolecular engineering as a […]
Nicholas Gregorich received the R.C. Edwards Outstanding Graduate Student Award given by Clemson University’s Division of Student Affairs on April 28, 2022. The award is given to the “all around best” graduate student who has exhibited both high scholastic achievement and commitment to the Clemson community through leadership in university organizations. Gregorich is a 5th […]
