Engineering microbes for efficient and effective carbon-conserving bioproduction (Environment, Manufacturing) PI Name & Lab name: James Carothers, Carothers Research Group Project description: The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded a 5-year, $15 million grant to an interdisciplinary, UW-led team of synthetic biologists to engineer microbial genomes that transform CO2 into high-value chemicals. The project, led by chemical engineering professor James Carothers, brings together expertise in CRISPR gene-expression programs, single-cell RNA sequencing, data-driven design, and carbon-conserving pathway engineering. Its aim is to advance fundamental research into large-scale, bio-based chemical production that is not only greener, but also produces better alternatives to petrochemical-based products. (https://www.cheme.washington.edu/news/article/2022-09-13/retooling-microbes-upcycle-co2). Two ChemE undergraduates, with preference for rising juniors, could join this project in Summer or Fall '23. Link to lab website: http://carothersresearch.com Application deadline (if applicable): April 15, 2023 Application link/instructions for expressing interest: https://sites.google.com/view/carothersresearchgroup/join Analyzing the Performance of Water Treatment Membranes PI Name & Lab name: David Bergsman (Bergsman Research Group) Project description: We are looking for a student to help us make and test membranes for water treatment. Water scarcity is a global issue, with inequitable access to clean water for billions of people on our planet. A very, very small amount of freshwater on Earth is accessible, while 97.5% of Earth's water is saline, too salty to be consumable. One way to combat this is through the process of desalination, which removes salt from sea and brackish water. Membranes are an energy-efficient way of performing desalination. Desalination membranes are typically made through a solvent-phase process called interfacial polymerization. Since this process uses and relies on solvents, it limits the types of membranes that can be made. This project uses a vapor-phase method called molecular layer deposition (MLD) to make these membranes. Using MLD will allow us to try existing membrane designs in a new way, and try completely new designs that cannot be done with interfacial polymerization. The ultimate goal of this project is to see how membrane chemistry and morphology, or other characteristics, affect its performance. As we try new chemistries and designs, we will analyze their performance and look for trends. In this project, the student will be using a lab-made membrane testing cell to test the membranes' performance. One metric of performance is permeability, or the ability of a membrane to allow fluids to pass through it. Another is rejection, which quantifies how much of a contaminant is successfully removed by the membrane. An ideal membrane has high permeability and high rejection, but that is difficult to achieve. With this, the student will learn how to safely operate a pressurized system, analyze results, and gain knowledge on membrane science. Additional project tasks could be included depending on the student's interest and involvement. Students are not expected to have any prior knowledge or experience, and will receive direct mentorship from the graduate student project lead.

To combat global climate change, it is crucial to reduce the emission of greenhouse gasses. One potential solution is to capture and sequester the carbon dioxide emitted from industrial processes to prevent it from entering the atmosphere. Because existing carbon capture systems are energy-intensive, we are exploring the use of membranes to separate out these gasses instead. The goal of this project is to improve gas separation membranes by adding small crystals that will improve the separation properties. The project will involve growing these crystallites using vapor-phase reactants in-situ (that is, the full reaction is carried out in a single reactor). Previously, we have been able to grow these crystallites through multiple steps. We are looking for a student that can help us complete this process with no intermediate steps using our vapor-phase deposition reactor. The student will change different variables such as reactor temperature, reactant temperature, dose time, hold time, etc. and see the effect on the growth rate. This process is known to work; the student will focus on optimizing it. They will learn to add/remove samples from the reactor, to use our LabVIEW code to set a recipe for the process, and to use ellipsometry to measure the samples. This is an excellent project for students broadly interested in nanomaterials and membrane separations, as well as students interested in gaining experience with running reactions and characterization techniques.

UW Partners in Health Engage is a nonprofit organization that focuses on advancing the right to health for all people. We believe that no one is healthy until everyone is healthy, and equitable distribution of health resources is key to achieving this goal. Through advocacy, education, and fundraising, we work to fight against systems of racism, colonialism, and oppression that reduce health around the world. Next week, we're hosting a screening of the powerful documentary Bending the Arc which follows the story of the origins of Partners in Health and its founder, the late medical anthropologist and physician, Dr. Paul Farmer. It will be held in the Allen Auditorium from 5:15-7:15 PM next Monday (10/23). This film is truly a must-see for anyone interested in global health. We invite you to join us in viewing this fantastic film. We hope to see you (and your friends) there!

[AMSA UW] In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: ??Hello! The American Medical Student Association (AMSA) of UW is thrilled to announce that Mock ER is open for general registration starting TODAY! What is Mock ER? Why should you participate? How do you register? Let's break it down: Being an undergraduate trying to get all those med school prerequisites is tough. There's volunteer work, research, MCAT prep, leadership, not to mention all the classes you need to study for...but the issue we've noticed is we rarely get to see what actual clinical problem solving looks like. So, we've put together a 3-hour representation of real emergency medicine in which you'll be competing in teams of four to triage, diagnose, and treat patients. The catch? While some of the diagnostic tests provided will help you properly treat each patient, there will also be tools that will be useless or misleading to make this simulation even more representative of an emergency room. Collaboration, discussion, and research with teammates will be crucial for success in this competition. Clinical cases used in the event have been curated by physicians and medical students, and you'll have the opportunity to walk through each case with them to go over the proper diagnostics and treatment for each case. Think you're up for the challenge? Registration opens today and closes Monday, October 30th at 11:59 PM PDT. Last Mock ER, our registration filled within 24 hours of opening so make sure to secure a spot fast! Registration is guaranteed for the first 72 registrants. To register for Mock ER, please fill out the form below: https://forms.gle/gmXTJWssTKQEX9YGA By filling out this form, you commit to being present and active during the entirety of our Meet the Team Event on Friday, November 17 from 8-9 PM (virtual on Discord) and the Mock ER event on Saturday, November 18th from 2-5 PM at the Husky Union Building (HUB).

The course is jointly offered by the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences and the Nutritional Sciences Program. The 3-credit elective course is now open for registration to all undergraduate, graduate, and professional students at the UW. Students can register under ENV H 490 A or NUTR 490 B This course introduces students to complexities and tradeoffs that influence the sustainability of meat production and consumption in the United States, with an emphasis on environmental impacts and animal welfare. Topics include: * Types and scales of production for beef, pork, and poultry in the U.S. context. * Tradeoffs and synergies between environmental, social, and economic sustainability considerations. * How do producers balance environmental and animal welfare goals day-to-day? Which are broadly shared, and where do different types of farms diverge? * What economic and operational constraints do farmers and ranchers face in trying to meet these goals? * How do the sustainability-related opinions, preferences, and purchases of the general public influence the decisions of livestock producers? This team-taught course draws upon interdisciplinary knowledge from agriculture, public health, systems science, and the social sciences. Students will not only learn but, at the same time, contribute to innovative research in this area by participating in data collection activities related to group deliberation and individual reflection. Students from all majors are welcome.
