M. Eugenio Vazquez
I graduated in Chemistry from the Universidade de Santiago de Compostela in 1996 (with honors), and from 1996 to 2001 worked on my PhD under the supervision of Prof. José Luis Mascareñas developing new synthetic DNA-binding peptides. In 2001 I received the Human Frontier Science Program long-term fellowship and joined the group of Prof. Barbara Imperiali at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where I worked for three years (2001-2004) on the development of caged compounds and fluorescent probes as tools to understand complex phosphorylation pathways involved in cell motility.
I returned to Santiago with a Ramón y Cajal contract in 2004, and was habilitated three years after in 2007. Since 2010 I am enjoying an Associate Professor position at the Organic Chemistry Department, and in 2011 I became a member of the Center for Research in Biological Chemistry and Molecular Materials (CiQUS).
Scott L. Wallen
Dr. Wallen earned a B.S. and Ph.D. from the Univ. of Illinois. He studied supercritical fluids at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory using a variety of spectroscopic techniques including NMR, XAFS, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. The author of over 50 refereed papers his work has been highlighted in Science and C&E News. He has served as a reviewer for top journals and government science panels. Dr. Wallen is currently working in the Department of Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Physics at Florida Southern College in Lakeland, FL. His research interests are on the development/implementation of green nanotechnology, chemistry and sustainable processes applied to materials synthesis, remediation, recycling and chemical analysis. Projects converting biomass to carbon quantum dots for sensing and electronics; nanophotocatalytic oxidation of wastewater; and use of carbohydrates (biogenic materials) for nanomaterials preparation are ongoing as are development of microvolume, high-pressure continuous flow systems (HP-CFS) to prepare and analyze functional, sustainable nanomaterials. He recently developed the concept of a circular economy paradigm for implementing university science laboratories which led to an Award for Innovation in 2016 by the Campus Safety, Health & Environmental Management Association (CSHEMA). At the 21st Annual Green Chemistry & Engineering Conference Dr. Wallen won the 2017 Applied Separations Prime Grant for commitment to teaching Supercritical Fluids. In his spare time he enjoys his family, playing music and outdoor activities.
Lei Wang
Professor of Geography at Louisiana State University. Research interests include Geocomputation, GeoAI, Remote Sensing of water, Spectroscopic analyses, and mapping flood hazards.
Mehmet Yaman
Prof. Dr. Mehmet Yaman received his Ph.D. in 1990 from the University of Inonu, Malatya-Turkey. Since 2002, he has been a Full Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the University of Firat. Since 2005, he is an Editor-in-Chief of, the "International Journal of Pure and Applied Chemistry” journal- Global Research Publications, New Delhi-India. He supervised and assisted more than thirty students 11 Ph.D.; 22 M.Sc.
Mehmet Yaman has a track record of 120 publications (corresponding author in most of them) in peer-reviewed scientific journals (including Curr. Med. Chem. and J. Med. Chem.) and more than 3,000 citations. He is an invited speaker for international lectures and has given more than 130 talks for national and international conferences. Dr. Yaman is on the Editorial Boards of more than 10 journals and serves as a referee for more than 12 peer reviewed journals in the fields of chemistry, medicine and environment. Prof. Yaman’s research focuses on the preconcentration and determination of toxic trace elements in biological, environmental and food matrices as well as determination of trace organic compounds such as histidine, flavonoids, anthocyanins, PAHs and acrylamide in plants and grilled foodstuffs by using HPLC-MS.
Professor Yaman has managed two national and two international conferences.
Professor Yaman has an International Book Chapter, Air Pollution-Monitoring, Modelling, Health and Control-978-953-51-0381-3, Hard cover, 254 pages
