Why Is Lara Estroff Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Lara Ann Estroff is an American materials scientist who is a professor at Cornell University. Her research considers the study and design of biomaterials. Early life and education Estroff was an undergraduate student at Swarthmore College, where she majored in chemistry and anthropology. As a college student, she played soccer. Estroff then worked at the Weizmann Institute of Science, alongside Lia Addadi, where she started investigating biomineralization and how chemical approaches could be used to solve challenges in archaeology. Estroff returned to the United States for doctoral research, joining the laboratory of Andrew D. Hamilton where she worked on the synthesis of organic superstructures that were inspired by biology. These molecules can be used to control the growth of inorganic crystals. Estroff moved to Harvard University as an National Institutes of Health postdoctoral fellow with George M. Whitesides.
