BME Year in Review |
|
Dear colleagues,
It’s my favorite time of year when we look back at how far we’ve come and how much we’ve achieved in WashU BME. Our mission is firmly focused on impacting human health, as you’ll see from our stories of faculty and trainee success in translating devices for stroke rehabilitation and neurostimulation and cellular therapies for treating diabetes. These advances illustrate the deep partnerships we’ve formed with our top-ranked School of Medicine and our St. Louis entrepreneurial community.
As we celebrate the accomplishments of this past year, we look forward to 2022 and moving into exciting new directions that include societal impacts of engineering, women’s health technologies and imaging science.
Keep watching as WashU BME broadens research excellence, supports community engagement and facilitates innovation as we transition into the new year.
