From Nano Neuro Kitting to Crystal Clear Surgery 일시:2006년 4월 15일 6:00 pm 장소: 남산서울클럽 연사: Eliis Behnke 교수 University of Hong Kong 참가: MIT동문 중 사전등록 선착순 40명 프로필Nanotechnology is often associated with materials fabrication, microelectronics, and microfluidics, but the intersection of nanotechnology and healthcare is rapidly taking center stage. While nano biomedicine has led to wildly futuristic promises, it has also presented real breakthroughs in drug research, development, and formulation, as well as in the field of diagnostics. Two very different breakthroughs will be discussed each representing a significant nano biomedical advance that holds great promise in treating human conditions in the foreseeable future. Rutledge Ellis-Behnke is an associate professor in the Department of Anatomy at the University of Hong Kong Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine and a research scientist in the Brain and Cognitive Sciences Department at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His primary interest is using nanobiotechnology to reconnect disconnected parts of the central nervous system (CNS). He received his Ph.D. in neuroscience from MIT, BS from Rutgers University, and graduated from Harvard Business School’s International Senior Manager’s Program (AMP/ISMP). Prior to returning to school to pursue his Ph.D., Ellis-Behnke held various management positions including Senior Vice President of a public company for testing and consulting services and Co-founder/CEO in 1995 of one of the first internet companies to do online commerce in computer memory. Ellis-Behnke is a Fellow and founding board member of the American Academy of Nanomedicine, Associate Editor of Neurology for the journal Nanomedicine, Scientific Advisory Board member for the Glaucoma Foundation, member of the China Spinal Cord Injury Network, Society for Neuroscience, American Chemical Society, Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, American Society of Neurochemistry and Sigma Xi.Technology Review named his nanotechnology discoveries one of the “Top 10 Emerging Technologies of 2007.” In addition to his work in neuroscience and nanomedicine Ellis-Behnke introduced the TabletPC to MIT and the University of Hong Kong as part of the migration to the paperless classroom to deliver all course material and texts to the students digitally. 프로그램6:00~7:00 pm 현장등록 및 디너8:00~9:00 pm 강연 및 Q&A 참가비Admission Fee: 30,000원 (Dinner 포함), 연회비 미납자 50,000원
