It’s been a little while since our last seminar, and we’re excited to welcome our next speaker today! Andrew D. Jones, Assistant Professor of Environmental Engineering at Duke University, will be presenting TODAY at 12 PM in 108 Snell Engineering Center.

Biography: Akhenaton-Andrew (Andrew) D. Jones, III is an Assistant Professor of Environmental Engineering and affiliate faculty in the Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science Department, Duke Materials Initiative, and Integrated Toxicology & Environmental Health Program at Duke University. His research uses engineering and policy analysis to help solve global challenges related to water and health. He is a 2021 recipient of the NIH R35 Maximizing Investigator’s Research Award to develop new models and tools for studying biofilms and a 2019 Sloan SEED fund award to develop new tools for point of use water quality monitoring systems. He was recognized as Young Investigator by the Center for Biofilm Engineering at Montana State, the premier center for biofilm research in the US. He received a BS in Mathematics and BS, MS, and PhD in Mechanical Engineering from MIT where he was a Lemelson Presidential Fellow and Alfred P. Sloan UCEM Scholar. He completed post-doctoral training as a Future Faculty Fellow at Northeastern University. He has directly supervised 2 high school students, over 20 undergraduates, 5 MS, 6 PhD, and 2 post-doctoral trainees including 12 from underrepresented backgrounds and 24 women. He and his team have presented at over 50 conferences and seminars. He is the 2023 Recipient of the Duke Outstanding Postdoctoral Mentor Award.

Wonder what you can do with a Master’s in Pharmaceutical Engineering?

Build automated systems for gene-editing therapeutics.
Lead innovative drug metabolism research.
Gain real-world industry experience before you graduate.

Aniketh Tathachar, MS’25, has done it all — from co-op at nChroma Bio to research in the Lab of Addiction Genetics, and now working at Blueprint Medicines while finishing his degree.
