David Wendell
David Wendell is an associate professor at the University of Cincinnati. Background David Wendell studied at Cornell University and University of California, Los Angeles. Wendell's field of study is nanotechnology and his PhD focused on biomedical engineering. In 2009, Wendell and a team of scientists from the University of Cincinnati undertook a research program that resulted in the successful development of an artificial pore. In September 2009, their subsequent paper, “Translocation of double-stranded DNA through membrane-adapted phi29 motor protein nanopores,” appeared in the Journal Nature Nanotechnology. The engineered channel has potential applications in nano-sensing, gene delivery, drug loading and DNA sequencing. The researchers identified ways to take energy from the Sun, and carbon from the air to create new forms of bio-fuels. Their report, "Artificial Photosynthesis in Ranaspumin-2 Based Foam" was published in the journal Nano Letters, in March 2010. Artificial ...

University Of Cincinnati
The University of Cincinnati (UC or Cincinnati) is a public research university in Cincinnati, Ohio. Founded in 1819 as Cincinnati College, it is the oldest institution of higher education in Cincinnati and has an annual enrollment of over 44,000 students, making it the second largest university in Ohio. It is part of the University System of Ohio. The university has four major campuses, with Cincinnati's main uptown campus and medical campus in the Heights and Corryville neighborhoods, and branch campuses in Batavia and Blue Ash, Ohio. The university has 14 constituent colleges, with programs in architecture, business, education, engineering, humanities, the sciences, law, music, and medicine. The medical college includes a leading teaching hospital and several biomedical research laboratories, with developments made including a live polio vaccine and diphenhydramine. UC was also the first university to implement a co-operative education (co-op) model. The university is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
