The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and The Lemelson Foundation have collaborated to create the AAAS-Lemelson Invention Ambassadors Program, designed to highlight the importance of invention and inventors. The AAAS-Lemelson Invention Ambassadors Program and the Warner Babcock Institute for Green Chemistry invite you to join John C. Warner and fellow Invention Ambassadors Bertrand Cambou, Ben Hsiao, Maria Oden, and Eric Fossum for a panel highlighting the systemic problems inventors encounter along the pathway to invention and the creative ways they have gotten around them. Panelists will also discuss practical ways that private and public entities can contribute to overcoming these challenges on a macro level.
Panelists:

Eric Fossum - Professor at the Thayer School of Engineering, Dartmouth and Director of the School's PhD Innovation Program
Benjamin Hsiao - Distinguished Professor of Chemistry, Stony Brook University
Maria Oden - Professor in the Practice of Engineering in the Dept. of Bioengineering at the George R. Brown School of Engineering at Rice University, and Director of the Oshman Engineering Design Kitchen (OEDK) at Rice
