Biomedical Engineering is hosting six new University Scholars for the 2011-2012 academic year. These six scholars will receive a $1,750 stipend to conduct their research, and the lab that hosts them will receive $500 to support the research. The following table lists the students, their mentors, and their research project.
| Student | Mentor | Project |
| Jose Garcia | Brian Sorg | Development of a novel hydrogel particle |
| Elliot Stepusin | Wesley Bolch | Computer simulation of tube-current modulation for dose reduction in CT imaging |
| Sheryl Chocron | Brian Sorg | Non-invasive techniques for drug delivery to tumors |
| Angie Posada | Brandi Ormerod | Circadian control of hippocampal plasticity |
| Jhon Cores | Peter McFetridge | Transfection of an endothelial cell line for characterization of leukocyte interactions on decellularized vascular surfaces |
| Michelle Sands | Wesley Bolch | Pediatric physical phantoms for dose verification in CT imaging |
Congratulations to the students and the mentors.
