Bioengineering: Supporting Innovation Across Disciplines in a University Setting
Stanford / Entrepreneurship
Hennessy explains that the Clark Center is important to the future of Stanford because it represents the growing importance of biology to the coming century. It is a radical organization for a university because it brings together faculty from a broad range of departments in an attempt to understand the translation between basic science and the applications of basic science.

Professor Sylvia Ceyer discusses bond enthalpy and the enthalpy of endothermic/exothermic chemical reactions. The heat of formation is defined as Professor Ceyer explains Hess's Law which is used to predict the enthalpy change and conservation of energy, regardless of the path through which it is to be determined. The lecture concludes with a discussion of thermodynamics and spontaneous chance, specifically Gibbs free energy and the concep...more

Environmental Politics and Law (EVST 255) The lecture critiques the U.S. Green Building Council's (USGBC) certification system, LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). The criteria for being highly rated under LEED emphasize energy efficiency and minimizing waste, but do not prioritize environmental health and limiting use of dangerous plastics and chemicals. USGBC is a non-profit organization, not a government agency, and...more
