2024 VinFuture Sci-Tech Week and Awards
RASEI Director Seth Marder spoke at the 2024 VinFuture Sci-Tech Week and Awards Ceremony, where CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Colleague Kristi Anseth was honored with the Special Prize for Women Innovators Award.
December 2024 – This week in Hanoi, Vietnam, the VinFuture Foundation hosted the 2024 Sci-Tech week and award Ceremony. This series of world-class events bring together leading scientists and experts from across a range of critical scientific fields, including materials science, artificial intelligence, air pollution and environmental studies. The capstone of the week is the Award Ceremony, recognizing scientists for their groundbreaking achievements that have significant societal impact.
RASEI Director Seth Marder was an invited keynote speaker in the Materials for a Sustainable Future session. CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ colleague Kristi Anseth received the 2024 Women Innovators Award, recognized for the advancement in design of polymeric biomaterials and methods for biomedical applications. Kristi is a pioneer in the development of biomaterial cell culture systems, critical components in the regulation of tissue development, maintenance and regeneration. Her team has designed new materials that can be engineered for tissue regeneration and accelerate healing of disease states. This provides a foundation for the study of 4-D biology in vitro with responsive and synthetic biomaterials, regenerating tissues across the human body.
Congratulations Kristi!
