Good luck to the PatchPals representing Georgia Tech in tonight’s ACCInVenturePrize Finals. These Coulter BME | Emory & Georgia Tech students are using AI to improve wound care for chronic patients. Ahead of the show, see how they’re doing it: b.gatech.edu/4l9JETr

PatchPals just won the People’s Choice Award at the 2025 ACCInVenturePrize Prize finals! The Georgia Tech Coulter BME | Emory & Georgia Tech team built an AI-powered wound care device that automates foam cutting —reducing treatment time by 30%. Read more about their project here: bit.ly/3QY4KGt

A new lab model from Wilbur Lam & team can sustain blood clots for a long time, allowing detailed study of how they form and resolve. It opens new paths for treatment, with big implications for stroke, heart attack, sickle cell & more. Now out in nature. bit.ly/4i8M7L3

Proud to see our graduate biomedical engineering program ranked No. 2 in the nation by U.S. News & World Report! Grateful to our students, faculty, and community who continue to move the field forward with purpose.🐝 Read our story: bit.ly/3G3ZIWD

Measles was once eliminated in the U.S.—so why is it back in the headlines? Dr. Peter Kasson, virologist and professor at @coulterbme, breaks down the science behind its resurgence, how it spreads faster than almost any other virus, and why vaccination remains our best defense.

A year before defending her Ph.D., Nuri Jeong was struck by a 6,000-pound SUV. After surgery & recovery, she pivoted from academia to launch Goals Unhindered—a coaching & training company helping scientists & entrepreneurs reframe their careers & lives. bit.ly/4ib6E1k

How does the brain hold onto what matters? A new nature study by Dr. Nuri Jeong & Annabelle Singer show that learning may rely not on more brain activity, but on precisely timed reductions in inhibition, creating space for new connections to form. bit.ly/3G3EIiK

How do you explain your Ph.D. thesis in 3 minutes—with just one slide? Ph.D. student Tawfik Hussein did just that at Georgia Tech's 3MT competition, earning First Runner-Up for making complex heart failure research accessible to all. Congrats, Tawfik!

Congrats to Anirudh Sriram, one of two Georgia Tech undergraduates awarded the Barry Goldwater Scholarship this year! Anirudh is using computational modeling to tackle one of medicine’s biggest challenges: making cancer immunotherapies safer & scalable. bit.ly/4jwhWyf

What if doctors could predict how stem cells behave before injection? Ahmet F. Coskun's team at Coulter BME | Emory & Georgia Tech built a “mini-lab” with hydrogels & 3D transcriptomics to map cell behavior—lowering GVHD risk & personalizing cancer care. bit.ly/42EXwfT

Dr. Michelle LaPlaca and Dr. W. Hong Yeo were just named Peterson Professors for their work in Pediatric Technology Center at Children's. From concussion care to soft bioelectronics, their research is pushing pediatric care forward. bit.ly/4jCzpVU

The Georgia Tech Capstone Design Expo had some impressive tech! An interdisciplinary team of biomedical engineering and computer science students developed a Vein Insertion Simulator (VIS) to help better train nurses who do IV insertions on newborns. Congrats to the

42 BME teams wrapped up their capstone journey at the Spring Expo! Congrats to One Hand Wonder & Pull My Finger for taking top honors & to every team that tackled real healthcare challenges with serious ingenuity. Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. 👏🐝 bit.ly/42rJr6z

Goldwater Scholar and Coulter BME | Emory & Georgia Tech student, Anirudh Sriram, is using machine learning to study diseases like cancer & Alzheimer’s, building computational models that could lead to more personalized treatments. bit.ly/42GTLq9

Emory University and Georgia Tech Coulter BME | Emory & Georgia Tech are leading an AI-driven approach to study freezing of gait (FOG), a common symptom of Parkinson’s disease that severely impacts mobility and independence. Article ➡️ bit.ly/3YQvnBh

.Georgia Tech Alumni (B.S. PUBP and BME, 2018, M.S. CS 2020) and U.S. Army Captain, Mahdi Al-Husseini, has been awarded the prestigious Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship. bit.ly/4jkREPR

Georgia Tech engineers have what could be a universal strategy for hard-to-treat cancers: flagging tumors & teaching the immune system to see what it usually misses. In the lab, the therapy didn’t damage healthy tissue and it stopped cancer from returning. b.gatech.edu/4mnGV9e

Impactful research. Stellar teaching. Dedication to service. Passion for invention and entrepreneurship. We’re proud to recognize this year’s College of Engineering Faculty Award Winners, including Gabe Kwong, Fan Zhang, Ghassan AlRegib and others: b.gatech.edu/4k2Uj0X

As a first-year, Sriya Surapaneni saw someone win the Helen Grenga Award & thought, “Maybe one day.” Four years later, she leaves Georgia Tech with one of its highest honors, recognized for her academic excellence, research, mentorship, & student advocacy. b.gatech.edu/3H356d3

And that's a wrap! Congratulations to the Class of 2025! 💛🐝 ICYMI: We celebrated our newest @coulterbme grads alongside the people who got them here—family, friends, and one helluva GT BME community 🎓
