This is a very special time for all of us at the Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering. Our first group of undergraduate students has entered their senior year, and they do so in a new location on campus.

We moved into our new and innovative research and education facility dedicated to biomedical engineering. Staff, students, and faculty have undertaken a labor of love to shape the Biomedical Engineering Building into our School’s home. I hope you will enjoy reading about the building, and also about a special surprise tribute to honor a pioneer of our field and the heart of biomedical engineering in the Weldon School: Prof. Leslie A. Geddes.

On behalf of everyone here at the Weldon School, I hope that you will join us for our building dedication on September 22. For those unable to attend in person, you can check our blog (http://weldonbme.org) for information on live streaming of the events, as well as other news of interest.

We look forward to having you join us as we dedicate the future of biomedical engineering research and education, and honor a man who is the cornerstone of the foundation upon which we all are building the future.

Best regards,
George Wodicka
