The Ullyot Public Affairs Lecture emphasizes to the general public the positive role that chemistry and related sciences play in our lives.

This year's lecture will be given by Joseph M. DeSimone, Chancellor’s Eminent Professor of Chemistry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and William R. Kenan Jr. Professor of Chemical Engineering at North Carolina State University.

DeSimone has developed groundbreaking solutions in green manufacturing and promising applications in gene therapy, drug delivery, and medical devices. His PRINT molds (pictured) can manufacture nanobiomaterials for the diagnosis and treatment of disease.

Dr. DeSimone will deliver a talk entitled, "Bridging Fields and Harnessing Diversity for the Sake of Innovation: Tackling Unmet Needs in the Life Sciences by Exploiting Developments in Materials."
