Wayne was the Chair of the Computing and Systems Technology (CAST) Division of AIChE in 2006, and currently serves as the AIChE CAST Division Programming Chair (2010-2013). He was an Associate Editor for Automatica from 1993-2005, and the Guest Editor of Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics (February, 2005), for a Symposium on Algorithms for Continuous Glucose Monitoring and Control. He also edited special issues on Process Control for the IEEE Control Systems Magazine (August and December, 2006). Wayne is a founding member of the editorial board of the Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology, and has co-edited a number of special issues on algorithms for sensors and a closed-loop artificial pancreas. He has a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Arkansas, and a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas. Wayne worked for three years as a process engineer for American Petrofina between his undergraduate and graduate studies. Before coming to RPI he was a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Texas, and a Visiting Lecturer at the University of California at Davis. Dr. Bequette has spent sabbatical leaves at Merck Research Laboratories and Northwestern University.
