Prof. Facundo Fernandez is recognized by 3M with a non-tenured faculty award. The 3M non-tenured faculty award provides financial support for nontenured faculty in selected technical fields of general interest to 3M.
Its objective is to encourage recipients to remain in academia, teach, conduct research of general interest to 3M, and to develop an awareness of science in an industrial setting. The selection and nomination is carried out by 3M personnel, and the criteria for selection, in addition to being nontenured, are the quality and pertinence of research being conducted by the professor. This recognition was awarded to Prof. Fernandez to pursue work in pathogen detection and identification using strain-specific protein biomarkers measured by MALDI and "ambient mass" spectrometry.
Congratulations, Facundo!
