Initially, I chose the Master of Engineering program as a way to delay graduation by another year. To put it simply, I was not ready for the real world. Before I decided to fully commit, I met with Dr. Jeremy Mercuri, the creator of the program, in the spring of my junior year. He explained […]
In August, 2017, Dr. Sarah Harcum was chosen to lead a Clemson team in an effort to better engineer Chinese hamster cell lines to produce vaccines and drugs for diseases such as cancer. Harcum’s team is part of a multiuniversity award to Johns Hopkins and three other universities that along with industrial partners, form a […]
What made you choose the Master’s of Engineering in Biomedical Engineering? One of the most enticing aspects of the MEng program for me was its length: two semesters at 15 credit hours per semester to earn a whole degree is an incredible deal. That in itself made the MEng seem like a great way to […]
With an $11 million grant from the National Institutes of Health Center for Biomedical Research Excellence, Clemson University has launched the South Carolina Center for Translational Research Improving Musculoskeletal Health, or SC-TRIMH, a new research center that will bring together scientists from across South Carolina to change the way musculoskeletal disorders are diagnosed, treated and […]
Martine LaBerge, chair of the Department of Bioengineering at Clemson and executive director of the Clemson University Biomedical Engineering Innovation Campus, or CUBEInC, in Greenville, is one of the newest Fellows in the Biomedical Engineering Society, an honor recognizing her for exceptional achievements and experience in biomedical engineering. LaBerge was elected Fellow of the Biomedical Engineering […]
Clemson’s Robert H. Brooks Sports Science Institute awarded assistant professors Dr. Jeremy Mercuri and Dr. Tong Ye a seed grant to determine the effectiveness of nonlinear optical microscopy to identify early degenerative damage to knee cartilage. Their labs will also determine the effectiveness of mesenchymal stem cells to promote knee cartilage health in patients undergoing […]
We are an award-winning department with much to be thankful for, and not a few of us would include Ryan Borem, whose generosity is an example to all. Jenny Bourne, editor How did you choose Clemson? My family moved to the Clemson area from Los Angeles, CA, before I graduated from high school. However, when […]
Tanner Rathbone, PhD student in Dr. Renee Cottle’s lab, represented Clemson with a poster presentation at the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy 21st Annual Meeting in Chicago in May 2018. Tanner’s abstract was published in the Molecular Therapy ASGCT 21st Annual Meeting Abstracts. Molecular Therapy. 2018;26: 369-370
Alex Harrison is an M.Eng student now. As a Clemson undergraduate, she was one of those students who liked to keep many balls in the air at work and at play. However, Alex’s work and classroom activities had an impact on many whose needs would otherwise not have been met. She worked, for example, for […]
In a tour de force, four undergraduate bioengineering design teams received honors in the 2018 VentureWell and National Institutes of Health “Design by Biomedical Undergraduate Teams” (DEBUT) competition. Partnering with national and international clinical and industry collaborators, Clemson’s bioengineering design programs develop innovative solutions in healthcare. Jenny Bourne, editor 2018 Design by Biomedical Undergraduate Teams […]
