Three students in the Department of Bioengineering were awarded an Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) grant: Thomas Fox, Samantha Passman and William Fischer.

Fox is under the mentorship of Dr. Gibson. His proposal is entitled “Investigating new methods of neural-navigation using Optical Coherence Tomography.”  Both Passman and Fischer are mentored by Dr. Benninger.  Samantha’s proposal is “Blood flow measurement as a tool for measuring inflammation across murine pancreases” and William’s proposal “Investigating Cumulative Effects of Multiple Gene Variants on Type 2 Diabetes Risk Using Computer Modeling”

Congratulations Thomas, Samantha and William!

Quote of the week

“There are so many organizations that promote social and technical growth,” Kelly said. “From National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) , Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE), to Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers (SASE), AI Student Association, LYNX Robotics … there is a club here for everyone. I have met so many friends outside of school, gained internship offers, and even industry connections from taking the first step to join these clubs.”
