Mr John B Homoelle, outgoing Director of New Technology & Regulatory Affairs at Michelman, became the first recipient of the company’s Dr John S Michelman Award for Outstanding Technical Contributions. Mr Homoelle was presented with the award at a retirement luncheon held in his honour on January 12, 2017.

According to Mr Steve Shifman, President and CEO at Michelman: "It has been such an honour to work with John. On behalf of the entire Michelman organisation, I’m thrilled to be able to present him this prestigious award and offer him and his family a heartfelt thank you and congratulations. John is a living example of the values we hold in such high esteem here at Michelman and is the embodiment of the phrase Outstanding Technical Contributions.

"Since his hiring on April 3, 1976, he has had a major hand in the success we have worked so hard for here at Michelman. John has been instrumental in the development of many of the products and solutions we offer today, initiated our current quality control systems, and led efforts to build our worldwide regulatory programs. He has run our laboratories and paved the way in our efforts to become known around the world as a true technology oriented organisation.”
