Dana G. Goski is a material scientist, past president (Oct. 2020 – Oct. 2021) of the American Ceramic Society (ACerS)[1], and Vice-President of Research & Development at Allied Mineral Products, Inc. where she guides global research initiatives and innovation in advanced ceramic composites & Refractory.[2] During her tenure as ACerS president she extensively supported the mission and activities of the Society’s Diversity and inclusion Subcommittee and the International Ceramic Arts Network (ICAN), the Society’s member organization for clay artisans and potters.[3]
Goski’s scientific contributions in the field of ceramic science and engineering have been recognized by multiple awards. Her patented work[4] on monolithic graphitic castable was recognized by 2015 ACerS Corporate Technical Achievement Award given to the Allied Mineral Products team in relation to Goski’s patent.[5] In 2019, she was recognized by Theodore J. Planje Award given for distinguished achievement in the field of refractories by the St. Louis Section of ACerS.[6] For her support of leadership priorities, identification of strategic approaches, and ability to rally people together to achieve significant milestones, she was honored with the ACerS Global Ambassador Award (2019).[7] In 2020 Goski was awarded with the John Marquis Memorial Award for her work published in ACerS journals and related to manufacturing in ceramics and glass.[8]
Education & academic credentials
Goski was born in Nova Scotia, Canada.[9] She got her early education at Royal Canadian Air Force Base schools and finished high school in the Nova Scotia public school system. After graduation, she studied chemistry at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia where she received her Bachelor of Science in 1989 and Master of Science in 1992 as a joint project with the National Research Council Canada (NRC) with a focus on Colloid processing and surface chemistry of alumina and zirconia systems.[9][10] As a Doctor of Philosophy candidate in the Faculty of Engineering, Department of Mining and Metallurgy (now Materials Engineering) at the Technical University of Nova Scotia (TUNS, now Dalhousie University) she was honored in 1994 at the 6th Canadian Materials Science Conference with the Best Student Paper in Materials Physics.[11] In 1997 she completed her Ph.D. and published her thesis Development of an alumina-mullite composite by reaction sintering.[12]
Career
In 1996, Goski moved to Columbus, Ohio and joined Allied Mineral Products, a global monolithic refractory producer headquartered in Columbus as a senior research engineer and technical consultant for the American Precast Refractories operation.[9] In 2009, she was named Director general and development before becoming vice president of research and development at Allied Mineral Products in 2018.[2] Her scientific career and accomplishments were profiled in the book Successful Women Ceramic and Glass Scientists and Engineers: 100 Inspirational Profiles to highlight her merits and work in the field of advanced ceramic composites & refractory materials.
Goski joined ACerS in 1995 while being a graduate student. She has been a member of the Refractory Ceramics Division since 1996 and served in its leadership chain 2006–2007.[3] She served on a variety Society and Division Committee and was a Society director 2016–2019.[3] She was named Fellow of The American Ceramic Society in 2015[13], awarded the St. Louis Section Theodore J. Planje Award in 2019[6], and the Marquis Award in 2020.[8] In addition to ACerS, she has been a leader in the Unified International Technical Conference on Refractories (UNITECR), and was chair of the technical program planning for UNITECR 2013 and co-editor of the ACerS-Wiley conference publication.[3] She is an advisor to the Board of Trustees of the Edward Orton Jr. Ceramic Foundation and a member of the External Advisory Committee for the Department of Materials Science & Engineering at Ohio State University.[3]
