Congratulations to fifth-year PhD student Anukta Datta for being awarded the department’s prestigious Schlinger Fellowship for Excellence in Chemical Engineering Research for the 2024-‘25 academic year!🎉
Datta works to understand how the molecular design of polymers controls how they deform and modify flow behavior in dilute solutions, ultimately to inform their engineering for novel or optimized behavior.🔬
