We want to share our appreciation to all the scholars, speakers, panelists, sponsors and staff who made last week's Rising BME Scholars Regional Conference possible! We hope our scholars have built strong connections and learned about the many career opportunities available.

Congratulations Kristan! x.com/UIowaEngr/stat…

July 1 was my first day as President of SigmaXi Sigma Xi. We have organized the annual meeting IFoRE on November 3-6, 2022 in Alexandria, VA. The subject is fantastic, the speakers phenomenal. Join us! You can register now! Nicholas A. Peppas and the Program Committee.

Exacerbations of COPD are associated with progression of emphysema, new publication from our group atsjournals.org/doi/abs/10.151… Sandeep Bodduluri Mark Dransfield #COPDGene #COPD @nih_nhlbi

Using 7 CT metrics, we show that women have smaller airway dimensions than men, even after accounting for diff in lung size and height = lower reserve against respiratory morbidity and mortality. pubs.rsna.org/eprint/4YYX7IW… #COPD @nih_nhlbi ATS Clinical Problems Assembly Sandeep Bodduluri Joe Reinhardt

A micro-engineering tool developed by Yuliang Xie, assistant professor of Iowa BME, could help scientists understand how lung diseases form and how to combat them. @nih_nhlbi recently awarded Xie a $214,583 grant to advance this area of research. engineering.uiowa.edu/news-all/2022/…

Great work Josh!

I am happy to share that our study on predicting COPD exacerbations was published in The Lancet Digital Health. We demonstrate the added potential of commonly acquired inspiratory CT scans for predicting future hospitalizations.

Join us for the 2023 Rising Scholars Conference! This conference is aimed at strengthening and diversifying the next generation of BME academics. Find more information and apply at: cse.umn.edu/bme/rising-bme…

Congrats to Iowa BME undergraduate student, Sushma Santhana, who was just named the Executive Director of UI Dance Marathon 30! We know that Dance Marathon is in good hands. 👏🎉 #uiowa #engineeringatiowa

Please tell your students there is still time for consideration for our program. We are considering all applications but if you are at an institution with limited research opportunities- you are our priority!

Congrats to Kishlay Jha, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering, and Sajan Goud Lingala, an assistant professor of Iowa BME, who were 2 of 17 University of Iowa faculty to receive 2023 OVPR Early Career Scholars Awards.👏 UIowa Research #uiowa research.uiowa.edu/news/2023/02/s…

We are proud to announce this year's winners of the Discovery and Innovation Awards. Congratulations to this amazing set of faculty, staff, students, and scholars! research.uiowa.edu/news/2023/03/o…
