The IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society has recognized Professional Researcher Gerard Ariño-Estrada for his significant contributions to radiation instrumentation and measurement techniques for ionizing radiation.
In cell therapies, regenerating tissues often must be damaged to know if the treatment is working. Jinhwan Kim wants to remedy that with non-invasive, real-time monitoring of cellular function and health.
A team of UC Davis scientists used dynamic total-body positron emission tomography (PET) to provide the first imaging of the human body's immune response to COVID-19 infection in recovering patients. Their work, published in Science Advances, could lead to a better understanding of how the body's immune system responds to viral infections and develops long-term protection against re-infection.
The Department of Biomedical Engineering in the College of Engineering at the University of California, Davis invites applications from qualified candidates for one or more Project Scientist positions in the laboratory of Professor Ramsey Badawi.
Biomedical engineers at UC Davis have come up with a new tool for tracing interactions between proteins. The new, light-activated tool could have wide applications in cell biology.
The Department of Biomedical Engineering in the College of Engineering at the University of California, Davis invites applications from qualified candidates for one or more Assistant Project Scientist positions in the laboratory of Professor Emilie Roncali.
This position will focus on developing simulation tools for nuclear imaging, with regular and significant contributions to an opensource software for simulation which the laboratory is a primary developing member (GATE).
A groundbreaking material — engineered bone marrow (eBM) — has the potential to improve treatment for osteosarcoma, a malignant bone cancer with low survival rates.
The successful candidate will delve into the vibrant nexus of nanotechnology, cell engineering, and bioimaging. Key responsibilities include engineering therapeutic cells – such as T cells, stem cells, and NK cells – with functional nanoparticles.
The Department of Biomedical Engineering (BME), in the College of Engineering at UC Davis, invites candidates for a tenure-track/tenured Assistant or Associate Professor in Optical Spectroscopy and Imaging faculty position. The resulting hire will not be made above the associate rank, regardless of the proposed appointee's qualifications.
Aidan Gilchrist, a new assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, believes there is an equal need to increase the quality of life as there is to extend it through medical advancements. He researches how the tissues surrounding our cells may be the key to reversing and preventing aging.
Not long after Quarter at Aggie Square launched in fall 2020, students quickly found success through the immersive, undergraduate academic experience. Some participants were admitted to prestigious graduate programs and others earned competitive internship opportunities. This year, one team of undergraduates found success by creating not one, but two innovations as a result of their Experience last fall.
Biomedical engineering seniors at the University of California, Davis, have received the 2023 Sandia Engineering Design Award for a capstone project that may transform how doctors treat elevated intracranial pressure, a severe condition where pressure continues to develop in someone’s head due to a tumor, brain infection or neurological injury.
The Department of Biomedical Engineering in the College of Engineering at the University of California, Davis invites applications from qualified candidates for one or more Assistant Specialist positions in the laboratory of Professor Emilie Roncali.
UC Davis doctoral graduate Abby Niesen, M.S. '21, Ph.D. '23 is arguably one of the most productive doctoral students in the history of the Department of Biomedical Engineering and quite possibly the College of Engineering, according to faculty who have been associated with UC Davis for nearly 50 years.
Using an approach based on computer vision technology, researchers can work back from COVID-19 mortality data to see how infection rates changed on the day a lockdown or similar measure was introduced. The approach could be generally useful in future epidemics and pandemics.
