Spring 2018 – Dr. Brylee Tiu was one of the 40 participants of the 2017 BASF Research Forum, which took place in Tarrytown, NY on August 30 – September 1, 2017. Brylee had the opportunity to present a short talk and poster about his work and engage with various BASF representatives from research and business management. He also participated in group project activities, discussions, lab tours and cultural events with other students and postdocs from major universities in North America, who were initially nominated by their academic advisors and selected based on excellence in research, evidence of leadership potential, and relevance to BASF’s research topics.
Later this month, Brylee will present a talk entitled “Improved Dry/Wet Adhesion of Biomimetic Polymer Glues,” at the BASF California Research Alliance (CARA) Program Review to be held at the University of California Santa Barbara on April 23-24, 2018. Other CARA professors and researchers are also scheduled to present at the 2-day review symposium! Good luck, Brylee!
