Nick Vecchiarello, Ph.D.,

Assistant Professor, Chemical Engineering at University of Virginia

Speaker

Nick Vecchiarello received his B.S. is Chemical Engineering from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and his Ph.D. in Chemical and Biological Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with Dr. Steve Cramer. He then worked as a late-stage purification scientist at Amgen in Cambridge Massachusetts before beginning a position as a postdoctoral researcher in the Chemistry department at MIT. Nick is a faculty in the Chemical Engineering at the University of Virginia and his group is working on designing new high-throughput screening and modeling techniques, along with designing new functionalized separation materials with novel biopolymers, to address purification challenges associated with emerging therapeutic modalities.
