From the Dean

Welcome to the spring/summer issue of the NC State Engineering magazine. This issue celebrates the launch of Think and Do the Extraordinary, The Campaign for NC State. Launched during the 2016 Homecoming Weekend, this capital campaign is critical for the future success of our College and University. Without the support of our alumni and friends, NC State and the College of Engineering cannot continue to provide the highest quality education and research environment for our students and faculty.

Questions for Chase Beisel

CRISPR-Cas is a genome editing tool that is making headlines for its potential impacts in medicine, agriculture and other areas. Dr. Chase Beisel, assistant professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (CBE), is working with colleagues across NC State’s campus to determine how the system works and its potential benefits. Beisel joined the CBE faculty in 2011 after a postdoctoral fellowship at the National Institutes of Health.
