Guest Bio: 
Dr. Michele Ostraat, Advanced Materials Leader for the Aramco Research Center – Boston, serves in a leadership role directing a technical team in applied research in chemistry, materials science, and engineering. Her team translates materials discovery into commercial opportunities for diverse technologies, including membranes for gas separation, porous materials for catalysis, and advanced composites for corrosion resistance. 
Prior to joining Aramco, she held numerous technical positions with increased responsibilities spanning new product and process development, prototyping, research and development portfolio management, and technology transfer. Michele was a Member of Technical Staff at Bell Labs and Agere Systems, examining the synthesis of rare-earth doped aerosol nanoparticles and investigating the behavior of chalcogenide phase change materials. At DuPont’s Experimental Station, she focused on aerosol synthesis and characterization of sub-micron and nanoparticles for advanced electronic application sand the occupational safety and health of nanomaterials. As Senior Director at RTI International, Michele led scientific teams developing products and applications for aerosols and nanomaterials for energy, defense,and health-related technologies.
Michele earned her Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in Chemical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in Pasadena, CA. She holds a B.S. in Chemistry from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas.
