Hilary Godwin, PhD, BS Dean of the School of Public Health and Professor of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, University of Washington Hilary Godwin joined the University of Washington on July 15, 2018 as Dean of the School of Public Health and Professor of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences. Over her career, Dr. Godwin's research has focused primarily on elucidating the molecular toxicology of engineered nanomaterials and the heavy metal lead. She has also worked on the impacts of conservation programs and policies on the health of indigenous populations and on community-based approaches to addressing environmental health problems. Her primary passions are for projects and programs that involve interdisciplinary collaborations that provide a scientific basis for prevention-based approaches to improving health and for training and mentoring the next generation of public health leaders. Godwin was most recently at the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health, where she was Associate Dean for Academic Programs and a Professor of Environmental Health Sciences and in the UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability. Godwin received a Ph.D. in physical chemistry from Stanford University and a bachelor’s degree in chemistry from the University of Chicago.

    ABSTRACTS 2013 Oral presentations followed by Posters Alphabetical by first name of first author ORAL PRESENTATIONS CLEAN ENERGY FROM ETHANOL A. Kowal, Institute of Non‐ferrous MetalCentral Laboratory ofs R, Adzic, Brookhaven National Laboratory M. Kopczyk, Institute of Non‐ferrous MetalCentral Laboratory ofs The possibility of obtaining electrical energy from bio‐ethanol has caused increased interest in Direct Ethanol Fuel Cells (DEFC). Currently‐available commercial platinum nano composites do not ensure complete combustion of ethanol. Two‐component catalysts containing Pt and SnOx, characterized by higher selectivity, are still not satisfactory. Catalyst which effectively oxidize ethanol and split the C‐C bond in ethanol at room temperature was prepared in 2005‐2009 [1‐ 4]. In order to improve the efficiency of high‐temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), particularly those utilizing ethanol as a fuel (ESOFC), catalysts have been researched which increase the power density of such a fuel cell. In order to find the most effective catalyst, research was conducted in the field of nano‐oxides such as SnO2, SnO2/Sb2O5, CeO2 and TiO2. The physicochemical properties of such synthesized oxides were evaluated using XRD and SEM. These oxides were then deposited on nickel foam in an external reformer, which was placed before an anode of the SOFC . It was found that a Ni/CeO2 catalyst placed in external reformer gives the highest power density of ESOFC (Ethanol Solid Oxide Fuel Cell). THE EFFECTS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN NON‐R&D SECTORS: INSIGHTS FROM ECONOMIC THEORY AND HISTORY Aashish Mehta, Center for Nanotechnology in Society ‐ UCSB Abstract: There appear to be no empirical studies of the effects of nanotechnology on non‐R&D employment opportunities.

Is it okay for a couple to choose the sex of their baby? Should a 17-year-old girl whose aunt had breast cancer get a genetic test? No one can claim to have the “right” answer to these or countless other questions that meet at the intersection of science and society. Yet all of us should be comfortable ask­ ing them and knowing where to find more information to develop an opinion based on the available facts. Does that mean we should spend most of our free time in the library, reading scientific texts and journals? Should we become scientists or doctors? These actions are not absolutely necessary for developing a critical mind. Of course, there are a great many things to be said for reading about science and going to graduate school. But have you ever thought about spending some time doing research in a lab? It’s a fun, hands-on way to learn. If you’d like to give it a try, contact your local college or university and ask about research programs for high school students.
