Congratulations are in order for Lab on a Chip author Ali Khademhosseini, who is to receive the prestigious Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers it was announced by The White House last month. This is the highest honour bestowed by the US government on science and engineering professionals in the early stages of their independent research careers.
Professor Khademhosseini writes a regular Research Highlights feature for Lab on a Chip, covering exemplary research in recent literature and also received the 2011 Pioneers of Miniaturisation Lecture at the 2011 MicroTAS meeting in Seattle earlier this month. The Pioneers of Miniaturisation Lectureship is awarded by Lab on a Chip and Corning Inc. to early to mid-career scientists for extraordinary or outstanding contributions to the understanding or development of miniaturised systems.
