Professor Sherry Harbin, a leading researcher at Purdue's Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering, has been granted a patent for her innovative collagen-based therapeutic delivery systems. This new technology focuses on supporting cell growth, enhancing tissue integration, and promoting blood vessel formation, paving the way for advanced solutions in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Congratulations to Abby Hair; a graduate student in biomedical engineering at Purdue Indianapolis. Earning the Carl H. McCaskey MD Research Award from the Indiana Chapter of the American College of Surgeons. Abby was recognized for her work on a project titled "Enabling Percutaneous Access of Femoral Arteries During Stabilization of Traumatic Pelvic Fractures," which she presented at the chapter's annual scientific meeting.

Professors Craig Goergen and Chi Hwan Lee of the Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering have been named University Faculty Scholars, one of Purdue’s highest recognitions for mid-career faculty on an accelerated path toward academic distinction.

At the Weldon School, we encourage curiosity, leadership and hands-on learning from the very beginning of a student's academic journey. First-year engineering student Rohin Kumar is embracing that mindset through his podcast Biopotential, where he explores the field of biomedical engineering by connecting with students, faculty and professionals who are creating real-world solutions.

Senior Design is the pinnacle of our biomedical engineering (BME) undergraduate curriculum at Purdue University. In Indianapolis, this year-long course challenges students to collaborate in teams to design, prototype and validate innovative solutions to pressing clinical and societal needs.

The inaugural Golden Hammer Awards recently honored a select group of Purdue University students who have gone above and beyond in their academic pursuits and personal development. The award ceremony, held in Indianapolis, celebrated students who embody the five pillars of the Purdue community: integrity, respect, honor, innovation and growth.

Chi Hwan Lee, professor of biomedical engineering and mechanical engineering, has been recognized with the prestigious College of Engineering Faculty Award of Excellence for Research. This award honors faculty who have made recent, exceptional research contributions with a significant impact on their discipline or on society.
