His research group investigates novel methods to separate and detect pathogens from complex matrices such as food and environmental samples and the use of bacteriophages for food and water safety. Professor Nugen received his B.S. in Animal Science from the University of Vermont and his M.S. in Food Science from Cornell University. He then joined Kraft Foods as a Research Engineer where worked on process engineering for new products. After several years, Dr. Nugen returned to Cornell for his doctorate and post doctorate work in the departments of Food Science and Biological Engineering, respectively. Prior to his current position at Cornell University, Professor Nugen was an associate Professor at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. He has received the Future Leaders Award from the International Life Sciences Institute and the Trailblazer award from the NIH.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For questions regarding this seminar, please contact Dr. Siyun Wang (<a href=\"mailto:siyun.wang@ubc.ca\">siyun.wang@ubc.ca<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>All are welcome!<\/p>\n<p>=========================<\/p>\n<p>Thank you!<\/p>\n<p>Yvonne<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yvonne Ma, MSc<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lab Manager,\u00a0Wang Lab of Molecular Food Safety<\/p>\n<p>Faculty of Land and Food Systems<\/p>\n<p>The University of British Columbia<\/p>\n<p>2205 East Mall | Vancouver BC V6T 1Z4<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FNH Special Guest Seminar Guest Speaker:\u00a0Dr. Sam Nugen, Cornell University Seminar Topic:\u00a0Phage engineering for the rapid detection of bacteria in food and water Date and\u00a0Time:\u00a0Friday, December 6th, 2019, 3:00-4:00PM, refreshments and coffee will be provided at 2:50 PM Venue:\u00a0Food, Nutrition and Health (FNH) 50 Sam Nugen is the Associate Professor of Food and Biosystems Engineering&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18841,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3836],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5947","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news-and-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5947","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18841"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5947"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5947\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5948,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5947\/revisions\/5948"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5947"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5947"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5947"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
