UT Austin Professor Nicholas Peppas, Sc.D. is among a handful of prestigious researchers whose publications are featured in the inaugural issue of Nature Chemical Engineering. The article, A Bright Future in Medicine for Chemical Engineering, is co-authored with Professor Robert Langer, Sc.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The University of Texas at Austin Department of Biomedical Engineering is pleased to announce Qian Yin, Ph.D. as the newest addition to their group of prestigious faculty members.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring has been around since the 1920s and is widely used by researchers and medical practitioners alike. However, the standard technology is outdated and can be burdensome on the patient with unprecise recordings. UT Austin Biomedical Engineering researchers aim to change that with innovative research to improve EEG technology for sleep monitoring.
UT Austin Department of Biomedical Engineering professors James Tunnell and Michael Sacks received the prestigious Best Paper Award from the Annals of Biomedical Engineering (ABME).
Sacks and Tunnell were co-authors of the paper, “Simultaneous Wide-Field Planar Strain–Fiber Orientation Distribution Measurement Using Polarized Spatial Domain Imaging,” along with three other researchers.
An award-winning program led by UT Austin Biomedical Engineering graduate students strives to promote inclusion for Graduate Teaching Assistants and encourage open communication.
Erika Treviño is a Research Support Coordinator who manages the operations for six faculty members and their research team members. She has been with the Department of Biomedical Engineering for a little more than a year after starting in August of 2022.
