is currently a principal engineer at Idex Health & Science | Semrock, where he works in the area of thin-film interference filters for life sciences and other applications. Prior to his position at Semrock, he was a senior principal scientist at the Eastman Kodak company, where he worked in the areas of plasma surface modification, thin-film adhesion, sputter deposition, and organic vapor deposition. As a young scientist at Kodak, Jeremy learned DOE principles, and he has applied them in his work for the past 25 years. His experience has provided him knowledge and perspective that have helped him to mentor scientists and engineers in the application of DOE principles. Most recently, he presented a tutorial on DOE to fellow engineers at Idex Health & Science. Jeremy has written several patents and journal articles in the area of plasma modification of polymers. He is a member of the Society of Vacuum Coaters and the American Vacuum Society, and served as chair of the Upstate New York Chapter of the AVS (UNY-VAC) from 1998-2000.
