Rabin Bissessur
Chair Person For Department of Chemistry & Profess
Faculty of Sciences- Chemistry
University of Prince Edward Island
Canada
Biography
Dr. Robin did his Phd from Michigan State. His postdoctoral postions were in Laval University from 1997 to 1998 & in Northwestern University from 1994 to 1996. During his career at UPEI he recieved the Annual Award for Outstanding Scholarly Achievement at UPEI & UPEI Student Union Faculty of the Year Award in Recognition for Excellence in Teaching in 2011.
Research Interest
Dr. Bissessur’s research includes the development of nanocomposites for use in lithium rechargeable batteries like those found in cell phones. He also studies the use of specific types of nanocomposites to help remove sulfur from petroleum products which would lead to lower processing costs and reduce sulfur oxide emissions into the environment. His focus is on Nanocomposite Materials and Polymer Chemistry.
