Annie Liang, Biomedical Engineering junior mentored by PhD candidate, Joseph Yu, and ICM Core Faculty member and ADVANCE Director, Natalia Trayanova, has received a Barry Goldwater Scholarship. Annie seeks to develop and leverage biophysically-detailed, multiscale mathematical models of the cardiovascular system to gain biological and mechanistic insights. Congratulations, Annie!
Natalia Trayanova, the Murray B. Sachs Professor of Biomedical Engineering and ICM core faculty member, has been selected to receive the Heart Rhythm Society’s (HRS) Distinguished Scientist Award. Trayanova will be honored at the Society’s 40th Scientific Sessions in San Francisco this May. The HRS, a leading resource on cardiac pacing and electrophysiology, is dedicated […]
Annie Liang, a BME sophomore in the ICM laboratory of Natalia Trayanova, Murray B. Sachs Professor of Biomedical Engineering, is one of 48 awardees of the 2018-19 Provost Undergraduate Research Awards (PURA).
