This includes research, design, adaptation, and field-testing of appropriate technologies and services that have strong potential to become scalable solutions for energy access, healthcare, water and sanitation, labor-saving innovations, and disaster/humanitarian response. The next I2D Lab meeting of this semester is scheduled for Thursday April 7th at 12:00-1:30pm in WANG 2501 with the following agenda: 12:00 De-brief and follow-up from the I2D Lab Exposition 12:30pm Betty Bugusu, PhD * Managing Director, International Food Technology Center and Project Director for the USAID Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Food Processing and Post-harvest Handling (Food Processing Lab). Food Processing Innovation Lab: Opportunities to partner with engineering. 1:00pm Klein Ileleji, Associate Professor of Agricultural and Biological Engineering * Extensive research experience in post-harvest handling of grains and oilseeds, especially with respect to stored product protection, as well as the production of energy crops, biomass characterization, handling and transport logistics; biomass, biofuels and bioenergy production and utilization. Capacity building in stored commodity management in Nigeria: Training to extension research This semester, we will also be offering the opportunity to join I2D Lab meetings remotely via WebEx. If you would like to join via this option, please let me know and I will send a connection link. The goal of these meetings is to learn more about engineering faculty interests and ongoing projects in global sustainable development, look for potential research collaborations, and to network with partners on campus to target new funding/partnership opportunities. Please feel free to share this announcement with interested colleagues or graduate students. We ask that you RSVP at gep@purdue.edu<mailto:gep@purdue.edu> to this, and subsequent meetings so that we can obtain a count for lunch. If you do not RSVP, you will not receive lunch. The meeting schedule for remainder of the semester follows. If you are interested in sharing your own project in an upcoming meeting, please let us know. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ALL MEETINGS ARE 12:00-1:30PM IN WANG 2501 Lunch provided for all meetings if you . Please RSVP to gep@purdue.edu<mailto:gep@purdue.edu>) by noon, Tuesday January 26th so she is able to place the lunch order.
