| Seminar Series:
The Center brings in speakers from both industry and academe to give seminars
on state-of-the-art developments in analytical chemistry, biotechnology
and chemical/biochemical analysis. The seminars are presented by a combination
of internal and external speakers and are held monthly. These seminars
are widely advertised with the goal of attracting an audience from both
industry and other disciplines at Berkeley.
Internal Collaborations: The Center
brings together groups with diverse research interests and backgrounds
with the goal of stimulating new collaborations that will more effectively
solve key biotechnology problems. Such collaborations lead to new solutions
to important problems and significantly broaden the training and education
of students both at the undergraduate and graduate level through: Industrial Collaborations: The
Center provides a formal mechanism for groups in both academe and industry
to interact, share ideas, and learn from one another. This also improves
both undergraduate and graduate education by providing students an opportunity
to interact with scientists from industry both on campus and in industrial
laboratories via internship programs. Such interactions help assure
that Berkeley students are educated in areas vital to future industrial
needs. Specific activities include: Graduate and Undergraduate Education:
Bioanalytical chemistry and biotechnology are growing areas of interest
at Berkeley. The Center provides a focus for the following activities
for improvement of education in these areas: Recruiting: The Center provides a focus for attracting and retaining the most highly qualified graduate students and faculty in bioanalytical chemistry and biotechnology. |
