I see it as a testimony to the great work of researchers at Imperial and the strong academic support from both the College and the Department of Chemical Engineering
– Dr Camille Petit
Dr Petit, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Chemical Engineering, currently leads a research group whose focus is on developing multifunctional nanomaterials as a platform for addressing environmental, water and energy sustainability challenges.
Her AIChE 35 Under 35 Award is the latest in a string of successes; Dr Petit was also awarded a Silver Medal award from the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3) last month.
Upon being informed of her success, Dr Petit said: “I feel extremely honoured to receive this award.”
“I see it as a testimony to the great work of researchers at Imperial and the strong academic support from both the College and the Department of Chemical Engineering. I share this success with my entire research group and all my mentors.”
An awards ceremony will be held later this year at the 2017 AIChE Annual Meeting in Minneapolis.
