Evolving Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS): A SciX Interview with Jason Dwyer of the University of Rhode Island

Author(s)Aaron Acevedo

During SciX 2024, which will be held from October 20–25, 2024 in Raleigh, North Carolina, various analytical scientists will be presented with awards for their career achievements. The American Electrophoresis Society (AES) will present Jason Dwyer of the University of Rhode Island with the Mid-Career Award, honoring his accomplishments thus far in his career.

Jason Dwyer is an associate professor of chemistry at the University of Rhode Island (URI) (1). His main research efforts often focus on nanopore technlogy in addition to spectroscopy. In preparation for SciX, we interviewed Dwyer about his latest research and his thoughts on receiving the Mid-Career Award.

To learn more about Dwyer, you can read our previous interview with him.
