Education

edit

Webster holds a BSc degree in chemical engineering from the University of Pittsburgh (1995), and an MSc and PhD (2000) in biomedical engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (Troy, NY). Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is the oldest engineering school in the U.S.[2][3]

Research

edit

Webster's research has examined the multiple uses of nanotechnology. His studies focus on the development, production, and assessment of nanophase materials as superior biomedical materials.[4] He has conducted in-depth research on the application of nanophase materials for tissue regeneration.[5][6] His research has focussed on hydroxyapatite, the major inorganic component to bone.[7][8][9] In contrast to hydroxyapatite that had not been doped, Webster's research on osteoblast (bone-forming cells) response to hydroxyapatite doped with divalent and trivalent cations showed that osteoblast adherence and differentiation on the doped HA were boosted.[10][11] In other research, he creates surfaces with nanostructures that have been FDA-approved for implantation in tissues like bone, the spine, and dental applications.[12]

In addition, he is particularly involved in creating nanoparticles that may enter biofilms, lessen inflammation, and specifically target cancer cells.[13][14] Dr. Webster was the first to identify improved tissue growth on nanomaterials.[6][15] He was the first to identify decreased bacteria functions on nanomaterials.[16][17][18] Dr. Webster was the first to establish a mathematical equation that can be used to predict nanoscale surface features to improve tissue growth, reduce infection, and limit infection.[19] He trademarked this process as “Nano-Optimized”, 2008.[20]

Career

edit

Webster is presently[when?] the chief nano scientific officer at PrinterPrezz in Fremont, California, and serves as the chief scientific officer of his numerous start-up companies. He started his career as an assistant professor at the Purdue University. His research on nanomedicine has received attention in media including MSNBC, NBC Nightly News, PBS DragonFly TV, ABC Nightly News via the Ivanhoe Medical Breakthrough Segment, Fox News, the Weather Channel, NBC Today Show, National Geographic's TV series on the future of medicine, ABC Boston, Discovery Channel, and OpenAccess Government.[21][22][23][24] His work has been on display at the London and Boston Science Museums.[25][26]

Departure from Northeastern

edit

Webster resigned from his position at Northeastern in 2021, reportedly "after dozens of his studies came under scrutiny online."[56] Webster later (September 1, 2021) stated, "An external investigation panel appointed by Northeastern University consisting of world renowned researchers came to the conclusion in their final report that I had not fabricated or falsified data, and subsequently cleared me of any academic wrongdoing."[57]
