Please note that Professor Volesky's
laboratory does not accept any new researchers as he is now pursuing
external activities in conjunction with
BV-Sorbex, Inc.
- promoting the biosorption process, giving workshops and seminars
world-wide as well as consulting on ecological issues and water-pollution
control. |

It was a privilege to work with you guys ! -

FISHBEIN, Leslie (Research Assistant,
2000-1)
"Biosorption of Anionic Complexes" |
You
will note that sections of this website are, to a good degree,
'historical'. However, since these researchers posted their
web-pages, number of new students around the world have taken advantage of
the description of topics appearing in the individual home-pages here -
and incorporated the themes in their own new research proposals.
Nothing wrong in doing that, go ahead !
The research themes are so wide and there is so much to do that one does
not need to worry about duplications.
In combination with reading of the research literature one can always come
up with interesting and useful results - slanted according to your own
science background and laboratory capabilities.
Good luck in your endeavours ! |
