Biomedical engineering students created a "command center" for 10-year-old Vladimir Elliott, a Serbian child adopted and brought to the U.S. who has SOX2 anopthalmia syndrome, which has left him blind and mentally and physically disabled. The students' table is designed to give Elliott a fun and stimulating environment outside of the classroom so he may continue his development at home. (Photo credit: Curtis Chan)
Scriptoria Communications has built a reputation as a world-class provider of communications training for biomedical research organisations.
These photos were taken at two scientific writing courses that Scriptoria provided for scientists at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC). The main focuses of the day-long courses were: (i) writing clearly and accurately in English; (ii) expressing scientific results efficiently; and (iii) overcoming the hurdles to getting work published in prominent journals.
To find out more about Scriptoria’s training courses go to www.scriptoria.co.uk/Scriptoria-Training-Courses.html or email enquiries@scriptoria.co.uk.

Work by a team of Penn State researchers led by Mohammad Reza Abidian may lead the way to the microencapsulation of chemotherapeutics. The breakthrough would allow doctors to directly inject medication to a brain tumor area and control the amount of medicine being dispersed. The work allows for control of size, shape, and drug release.

John W. Strohbehn, “father of bioengineering,” spent 31 years on the faculty of Thayer School and brought biomedical engineering to Dartmouth.
Strohbehn established his name in radiophysics, then turned his attention to bioengineering, developing extensive collaborations with Dartmouth Medical School and Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. Honoring his dedication to biomedical engineering, DMS annually awards a medical student the John W. Strohbehn Medal for Excellence in Biomedical Research.
John Strohbehn died in Hanover on February 22, 2007 after a long illness.

International Centre for Environmental Management:
Promoting Climate Resilient Rural Infrastructure in the Northern Mountain Provinces of Vietnam
Donor / Partner: Asian Development Bank (ADB) | Duration: 2013-2016 | Location: The Northern Mountain Provinces of Vietnam
About: The objective of the project in northern Vietnam to demonstrate effective bio-engineered solutions which, where possible, provide ‘win-win’ outcomes for resilience of rural infrastructure to climate risk and opportunities for community livelihood enhancement.
The project focuses on rural irrigation, slope stability for roads, river-bank protection, and flood protection works. Lessons learned from the project works will provide the basis for capacity building activities with local community members, contractors and government staff at local, provincial and national levels. The extension of this work is to make recommendations for the broader adoption of bio-engineered approaches as an effective solution to manage climate risk in Vietnam. The project will also raise awareness of climate risks and vulnerabilities in local communities and empower them with the capability to manage risk through practical, cost effective solutions which can be implemented with local resources.
Former dean of the Cockrell School of Engineering John J. McKetta chats with Department of BIomedical Engineering Chair Nicholas Peppas about the early days of biomedical engineering at The University of Texas at Austin. Interview took place at McKetta's Westminster Manor residence in Austin, Texas on June 26. 2014.
