Delayed optimization of environmental metrics in material design and industrial practice can lead to costly redesign and remediation needs. Higher-throughput environmental assessment tools and predictive strategies may help guide design for more economically and environmentally sustainable industrial process and practices. Plata will discuss specific examples from oil and gas development, nanomaterial synthesis, and recent efforts in improved polymers and plastics for environmental compatibility.
How do you take a patent from a place of weakness to a place of strength? How can you make sure that the right people are making the decisions about what to patent? Should patents be based on technology or is it more effective to approach patents from the business side? Join Professor Ben Roin to discuss strategies for creating powerful patents that will better protect your intellectual property.
