NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / March 13, 2023 / For Angela Dodd, finding a career as a female senior scientist meant navigating the STEM world without many women mentors. "When I joined the International Paper Innovation Center out of grad school, there really weren't many senior scientists who were female. I'm proud to be a senior female scientist and I hope younger scientists can look up to me."
Located at International Paper's Innovation Center in Federal Way, Wa., Angela has assisted IP's GCF business with front-end innovation that creates innovative solutions for our customers' problems. It's something Dodd calls "customer-centric, outcome-based innovation." She said, "We've taken on a big role of working directly with our customers to understand their needs and then create a solution that's measurable, meaningful and delivers value to our customers and their end-use consumers."
One example is optimizing the production of Supersoft® Odor Control pulp in order to allow IP to offer this product to a broader customer base.
