For eight years, he served on the organizing committee for the annual Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals. Apel has been very active in mentoring junior and mid-level INEEL scientific staff, and frequently conducts peer reviews of manuscripts submitted for publication in national and international microbiology, biotechnology and bioremediation journals.
James Delmore holds a Ph.D. in physical chemistry from the University of Missouri at Columbia. In 38 years at INEEL, he has performed key studies in the chemistry of ion emission, isotope ratio measurements, surface ionization mass spectrometry and ion optic modeling.
Delmore has been a co-recipient of three R&D 100 awards, and his work has led to new INEEL missions in contaminant detection, isotope ratio measurements, and ion optic and mass spectrometer design. He has led teams that designed, built and successfully operated three major types of mass spectrometers over the past 19 years. Delmore also has actively mentored many junior scientists and researchers at INEEL -- some of whom are now leading successful INEEL programs that Delmore originally began.
He has numerous professional publications, and was co-organizer of two Conferences on Inorganic Mass Spectrometry. He was also guest editor of two editions of the International Journal of Mass Spectrometry and Ion Processes -- and frequently reviews proposals for DOE's Office of Science.
Paul Meakin holds a Ph.D. in physical chemistry from the University of California at Santa Barbara. He has worked at DuPont as a research supervisor (polymer science) and lead scientist (assessing the effect of chlorofluorocarbon
