SUMMARY:The 46th Annual David M. Mason Lectures in Chemical Engineering - With Nobel Laureate Dr. Frances H. Arnold
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Title: Innovation by Evolution: Bringing New Chemistry to Life\nDr. Frances H. Arnold\, California Institute of Technology\n Sponsored by Stanford’s Department of Chemical Engineering\n4:30-5:30pm\, Jen-Hsun Huang Building\, NVIDIA Auditorium\, Free\, Learn more\n\nThe Department of Chemical Engineering is pleased to invite you attend our 46th Annual David M. Mason Lecture on Tuesday\, May 10\, from 4:30 – 5:30 pm. The lecture will be held in Jen-Hsun Huang Engineering Center – Nvidia Auditorium. Our distinguished speaker will be Dr. Frances H. Arnold\, California Institute of Technology’s Linus Pauling Professor of Chemical Engineering\, Bioengineering and Biochemistry and director of the Donna and Benjamin M. Rosen Bioengineering Center. \nSpeaker Profile:\nDr. Frances Arnold\, the Linus Pauling Professor of Chemical Engineering\, Bioengineering and Biochemistry and Director of the Rosen Bioengineering Center at the California Institute of Technology\, became the first American woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Chemistry (2018) for pioneering directed evolution methods used to make enzymes for applications across medicine\, consumer products\, agriculture\, fuels and chemicals.  She was appointed Co-Chair of the Presidential Council of Advisors for Science and Technology (PCAST) by President Biden in 2021. Arnold received the Bower Award in Science in 2019\, the Millennium Technology Prize in 2016\, the Charles Stark Draper Prize in 2011\, and a 2011 National Medal of Technology and Innovation. \nShe is an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, the American Philosophical Society\, and the US National Academies of Science\, Medicine\, and Engineering; she was appointed to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences by Pope Francis in 2019.  Arnold received her B.S. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Princeton University and her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley. \nLecture Title & Abstract:\nInnovation by Evolution: Bringing New Chemistry to Life\nNot satisfied with biology’s vast catalyst repertoire\, I want to create new enzyme catalysts and expand the chemistry of life. We use the most powerful biological design process\, evolution\, to optimize existing enzymes and invent new ones\, thereby circumventing our profound ignorance of how sequence encodes function. Chemistry encoded in DNA and optimized by evolution enables efficient\, sustainable routes to important fuels and chemicals. Evolution not only optimizes\, it can also innovate and create entirely new enzyme catalysts. I will illustrate how whole families of new-to-nature enzymes increase the scope of molecules and materials that can be built using synthetic biology.

SUMMARY:The 2022 State of the Valley Conference: Silicon Valley’s Annual Town Hall Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Joint Venture Silicon Valley\n9am-Noon\, Hybrid event taking place at Stanford University\, McCaw Hall\, Arrillaga Alumni Center and simultaneously broadcast via Brandlive\, $35\, Registration required\n\nWhat is the State of the Valley Conference?\nState of the Valley is an old-fashioned “town hall” meeting\, a tradition at least as old as our nation’s founding\, when concerned citizens met on the village green to mobilize for the challenges ahead. In that same spirit\, Joint Venture’s town meeting convenes the entire region—concerned citizens and stakeholders\, thought leaders and opinion makers\, journalists\, students and academics\, our elected representatives and their professional staff\, business leaders\, labor and workforce leaders\, venture capitalists and others—for dialogue and discussion about the Valley’s challenges and opportunities. \nTo inform the discussion our principal tool is the Silicon Valley Index\, a nationally-recognized publication that has been telling the Silicon Valley story since 1995. The indicators measure the strength of our economy and the health of our community\, highlighting challenges and providing a data-rich foundation for decision making. \nHow will State of the Valley work during the Pandemic?\nAs the pandemic stretches on\, State of the Valley has adapted to be a hybrid event: \n\nThe conference will take place live and in person at Stanford University for an audience capped at 300 people (masked\, providing proof of vaccination). Those people will be seated at sponsored tables\, and your organization can sponsor one of the few remaining tables by contacting the Joint Venture office. It goes without saying that the in-person gathering will conform to the official guidelines issued by the public health officers of San Mateo and Santa Clara counties. It will be canceled—even at the last minute—if the breakthrough variants flare up and health officials ratchet the standards upward.\nThe event will be simultaneously broadcast to a sizable audience in the Bay Area and beyond\, via Brandlive. Registration ($35) is simple with a credit card. Registered participants will receive access to 100 percent of the proceedings\, the ability to chat and post comments\, and a downloadable PDF version of the 2022 Silicon Valley Index. A few days before the conference online attendees will receive an email with all the details on how to access the virtual event.\n\n  \nLead Sponsor:  \nThe 2022 State of the Valley conference is made possible by generous support from Facebook as the lead sponsor\, with additional support from Accenture\, Stanford Children’s Health\, and Bank of America\, and these other sponsors. \nStanford University is co-presenting the 2022 State of the Valley as an Office of Community Engagement Regional Forum\, periodic events that showcase regional collaboration on timely topics and advance Stanford’s mission.
