Good chemistry ⚗️ Inventions by @ChemistryFSU Professor Joe Schlenoff are solving problems in medicine, protective ship coatings and water purification. #FSUResearch | #FSUImpact
Meet FSU’s world-class faculty member, Dr. Schlenoff! A pioneering polymer scientist and the university’s first ACS PMSE Fellow, he has 42 patents—from wound dressings to water purification—and developed “zwitterglass,” an innovative marine anti-fouling coating.

Thank you to @OregonState Professor Rich G. Carter for sharing your insight on Promotion & Tenure – Innovation & Entrepreneurship at @FloridaState!
“Dr. Rich Carter is a true partner,” said Vice President for Research Stacey S. Patterson @stacey_sspatter. “He is a national leader in the conversation around innovation and entrepreneurship.”
Carter is the principal investigator of a @NSF program to facilitate the work universities are doing in the entrepreneurship space and encourage them to incorporate entrepreneurship and innovation into the promotion and tenure process.
Many faculty members get into research wanting to have a positive impact on society through their work. Creating new products or companies is one way to do that.
“Remember these impacts are all across your colleges, all across the university,” he said.
