Sridevi Sarma, associate professor of biomedical engineering, associate director of the Institute for Computational Medicine, and 2008 L’Oréal USA For Women In Science (FWIS) Fellow has been awarded a 2018 “Changing the Face of STEM” (CTFS) grant from L’Oreal to support her mentoring efforts. Sarma is using her second CTFS grant to continue hosting a […]
Mathematicians and cancer scientists have found a way to simplify complex biomolecular data about tumors, in principle making it easier to prescribe the appropriate treatment for a specific patient. The digital approach from scientists at the Johns Hopkins University—a computational strategy transforms highly complex information into a simplified format that emphasizes patient-to-patient variation in the […]
Suchi Saria, ICM core faculty member and John C. Malone Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science, has been selected as a Young Global Leader. Each year, the World Economic Forum bestows this honor on the world’s most distinguished leaders who are under the age of 40. Those selected are invited to become an active member […]
Joshua Vogelstein, ICM core faculty member and assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering has been selected to receive a two-year, $250,000 Schmidt Science Nascent Innovation Grant grant. The grant was created by the Palo Alto, California-based Schmidt Family Foundation to support the innovative use of data science and technology in research projects that depart […]
René Vidal, ICM core faculty member and professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University, has been appointed as the Herschel L. Seder Professor in Biomedical Engineering. The Herschel L. Seder Professorship in Biomedical Engineering was endowed by the generosity of Herschel L. Seder ’39 to support outstanding biomedical engineering faculty members. […]
Girl Scouts learn engineering principles by building miniature roller coasters, an activity made possible by a STEM Mentoring Grant received by JHU’s Sridevi Sarma.
Natalia Trayanova, Murray B. Sachs professor of biomedical engineering, has been awarded a 2018 Seed Funding Award by the Institute for Data Intensive Engineering and Science (IDIES) for her research titled, “Data-driven prediction of risk of sudden cardiac death.” The proposed research, a collaboration with Katherine C. Wu, associate professor of cardiology at the School of […]
Sridevi Sarma, ICM core faculty member and associate professor of biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins University, was recently a guest on the IEEE Brain Initiative podcast series, where she discussed her background in electrical engineering and control theory, her current research on mathematical models of neurological diseases, and the importance of encouraging young women to […]
Computer models are used in many aspects of daily life, but rarely in medicine. Natalia Trayanova, Murray B. Sachs Professor of biomedical engineering and ICM core faculty, would like to change that. She was recently featured in the Department of Biomedical Engineering’s Pioneers video series for her innovative research in computational cardiology. Using predictive modeling […]
Suchi Saria, ICM core faculty member, is one of four Johns Hopkins faculty to be named Sloan Research Fellows for 2018. Saria who is recognized for creating life-saving computer algorithms that hospital can use to detect and treat sepsis, has a primary appointment in the Department of Computer Science in the Whiting School of Engineering […]
