Lub koom haum ntawm Engineering thiab Technology (IET) hnub no (Lub Kaum Hli 20) tau muab khoom plig rau Northwestern University Chad xibfwb A. Mirkin nrog rau 2022 Faraday Medal.
Faraday Medal yog ib qho khoom plig muaj koob npe tshaj plaws rau cov kws ua haujlwm thiab cov kws tshawb fawb, thiab yog IET qhov khoom plig siab tshaj plaws muab rau kev ua tiav kev tshawb fawb lossis kev lag luam. Raws li cov lus tshaj tawm, Mirkin tau txais txiaj ntsig rau "kev tsim thiab tsim ntau yam ntawm cov cuab yeej, txoj kev, thiab cov ntaub ntawv uas tau txhais lub sijhawm niaj hnub ntawm nanotechnology."
"Thaum tib neeg tham txog cov thawj coj hauv ntiaj teb hauv kev tshawb fawb kev sib koom tes, Chad Mirkin tawm los, thiab nws cov kev ua tiav suav tsis txheeb tau ua rau thaj chaw," said Milan Mrksic, tus lwm thawj ntawm kev tshawb fawb ntawm Northwestern University. "Chad yog lub cim hauv thaj tsam ntawm nanotechnology, thiab yog vim li cas. Nws lub siab nyiam, xav paub thiab muaj peev xwm tau mob siab rau los daws cov teeb meem loj thiab ua kom muaj txiaj ntsig zoo. Nws ntau qhov kev tshawb fawb thiab kev ua lag luam tau ua tiav tau tsim ntau yam kev siv thev naus laus zis, thiab nws coj lub zej zog muaj zog ntawm peb lub koom haum International ntawm Nanotechnology. Qhov khoom plig tshiab kawg no tau txais txiaj ntsig zoo ntawm nws txoj kev coj noj coj ua ntawm Northwestern University thiab hauv thaj tsam ntawm nanotechnology. "
Mirkin tau lees paub dav dav rau kev tsim khoom ntawm spherical nucleic acids (SNA) thiab kev txhim kho cov kab mob lom thiab tshuaj lom neeg thiab cov kev kho mob thiab cov tswv yim rau kev sib txuas ntawm cov ntaub ntawv raws li lawv.
SNAs tuaj yeem nkag mus rau tib neeg lub hlwb thiab cov ntaub so ntswg thiab kov yeej cov kab mob lom uas cov qauv siv tsis tau, tso cai rau kev tshawb nrhiav caj ces lossis kho cov kab mob yam tsis muaj kev cuam tshuam rau cov hlwb noj qab haus huv. Lawv tau dhau los ua lub hauv paus rau ntau dua 1,800 cov khoom lag luam siv hauv kev kuaj mob, kev kho mob, thiab kev tshawb fawb txog lub neej.
Mirkin tseem yog ib tug pioneer nyob rau hauv lub teb ntawm AI-raws li cov ntaub ntawv discovery, uas koom nrog kev siv high-throughput synthesis cov tswv yim ua ke nrog kev kawm tshuab thiab unprecedentedly loj, high-zoo datasets los ntawm loj cov tsev qiv ntawv ntawm ntau lab ntawm positionally encoded nanoparticles. - Tshawb nrhiav sai sai thiab ntsuas cov ntaub ntawv tshiab rau kev siv hauv kev lag luam xws li tshuaj, lub zog huv, catalysis, thiab lwm yam.
Mirkin tseem paub txog kev tsim tus cwj mem nanolithography, uas National Geographic tau hu ua ib qho ntawm lawv "100 Kev Tshawb Fawb Txog Kev Tshawb Fawb Uas Hloov Lub Ntiaj Teb", thiab HARP (High Area Rapid Printing), 3D txheej txheem luam ntawv uas tuaj yeem tsim cov khoom nruj, elastic, lossis ceramic Cheebtsam. . nrog cov ntaub ntawv throughput. Nws yog tus tsim ntawm ntau lub tuam txhab, suav nrog TERA-print, Azul 3D thiab Holden Pharma, uas tau cog lus tias yuav coj kev nce qib hauv nanotechnology rau kev tshawb fawb txog lub neej, biomedicine thiab kev lag luam qib siab.
"Nws zoo kawg," Milkin hais. "Cov neeg uas yeej yav dhau los tsim cov neeg uas hloov lub ntiaj teb los ntawm kev tshawb fawb thiab thev naus laus zis. Thaum kuv saib rov qab rau cov neeg tau txais yav dhau los, cov neeg nrhiav pom ntawm lub tshuab hluav taws xob, thawj tus txiv neej faib lub atom, tus tsim thawj lub khoos phis tawj, nws yog ib zaj dab neeg zoo kawg, kev hwm zoo kawg, thiab kuv pom tseeb zoo siab heev los ua ib feem. ntawm nws."
Faraday Medal yog ib feem ntawm IET Medal of Achievement series thiab muaj npe tom qab Michael Faraday, leej txiv ntawm electromagnetism, tus kws tsim khoom zoo tshaj plaws, chemist, engineer thiab kws tshawb fawb. Txawm niaj hnub no, nws cov ntsiab cai ntawm electromagnetic conduction yog dav siv nyob rau hauv hluav taws xob motors thiab generators.
Qhov khoom plig no, thawj zaug muab 100 xyoo dhau los rau Oliver Heaviside, paub txog nws txoj kev xav ntawm cov kab sib kis, yog ib qho khoom plig qub tshaj plaws tseem tau txais txiaj ntsig. Mirkin nrog cov neeg muaj txiaj ntsig zoo xws li Charles Parsons (1923), tus tsim ntawm lub tshuab hluav taws xob niaj hnub no, JJ Thomson, tau lees paub rau kev tshawb pom lub tshuab hluav taws xob hauv xyoo 1925, Ernes T. Rutherford, tus neeg tshawb nrhiav ntawm atomic nucleus (1930), thiab Maurice Wilks, nws tau lees paub. nrog kev pab tsim thiab tsim thawj lub tshuab computer (1981).
IET Thawj Tswj Hwm Bob Cryan tau hais hauv nqe lus tias "Tag nrho peb cov neeg tau txais txiaj ntsig niaj hnub no yog cov neeg tsim kho tshiab uas tau ua rau muaj kev cuam tshuam rau lub ntiaj teb peb nyob hauv," "Cov tub ntxhais kawm thiab cov kws tshaj lij tau zoo heev, lawv tau ua tiav zoo hauv lawv txoj haujlwm thiab txhawb cov neeg nyob ib puag ncig lawv. Lawv txhua tus yuav tsum txaus siab rau lawv txoj kev ua tiav - lawv yog tus qauv zoo kawg rau cov tiam tom ntej. "
Mirkin, tus xibfwb ntawm George B. Rathman ntawm Chemistry ntawm Weinberg College of Arts thiab Sciences, yog lub zog tseem ceeb hauv Northwest qhov tshwm sim los ua tus thawj coj hauv ntiaj teb hauv nanoscience thiab tus tsim ntawm International Institute of Nanotechnology (IIN) ntawm Northwest. Mirkin tseem yog tus xibfwb qhia tshuaj ntawm Northwestern University's Feinberg Tsev Kawm Ntawv Tshuaj Kho Mob thiab xibfwb ntawm Tshuaj thiab Tshuaj Khomob, Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science thiab Engineering ntawm McCormick School of Engineering.
Nws yog ib qho ntawm ob peb tus neeg raug xaiv los ntawm peb ceg ntawm National Academy of Sciences - National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering thiab National Academy of Medicine. Mirkin kuj yog ib tug tswv cuab ntawm American Academy of Arts thiab Sciences. Mirkin txoj kev koom tes tau lees paub nrog ntau dua 240 lub teb chaws thiab thoob ntiaj teb khoom plig. Nws yog thawj tus kws qhia ntawv hauv Northwestern University tau txais Faraday Medal thiab nqi zog.
