Joseph Schlenoff Explained

Dr. Joseph B. Schlenoff is a distinguished research professor and Leo Mandelkern Professor of Polymer Science of the department of chemistry and biochemistry at Florida State University. He graduated with his doctorate in chemistry from UMass-Amherst in 1987 and became a professor at Florida State University in 1988.[1] A leading scientist in the field of water-soluble polymers and biocompatible polymer composites and blends, Dr. Schlenoff has discovered a process for creating biomaterials that can be used in surgical implants designed for the extended release of certain medications and holds 30 issued and many pending patents.[2] This number of issued patents places him second among faculty at Florida State University behind only Robert A. Holton.[3] He is the founder of the start-up, nanoStrata, a company that manufactures novel robots to create biofilms.[4] Dr. Schlenoff was one of three researchers from around the world awarded a Gutenberg Chair for 2011 at the Université de Strasbourg in France.[5] In 2013, Dr. Schlenoff was awarded the Florida Award from the American Chemical Society.[6]
