TA Instruments Announces Distinguished Young Rheologist Award Recipients
TA Instruments recently announced three recipients of the Distinguished Young Rheologist award.
TA Instruments recently announced three recipients of the Distinguished Young Rheologist award: Simon Haward, Ph.D., Research research Associate associate at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology; Quan Chen, Ph.D., Associate associate Professor professor of Chemical chemical Engineering engineering at the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry; and Takashi Uneyama, Ph.D., Associate associate Professor professor of Science science and Engineering engineering at Kanazawa University.
Haward is was reportedly recognized for his work in the rheology of complex fluids, especially pioneering microfluidic and optical techniques to measure complicated converging and extensional flows. Dr. Chen’s nomination cited contributions in the area of associative polymers including strong experimental contributions and the development of molecular models for network formation. Dr. Uneyama specializes in soft matter physics and has contributed important theories for associative network formation and the non-linear response of entangled polymers, all underpinned by strong experimental evidence.
