School of Biomedical Engineering, Science, and Health Systems
ENDOWED CALHOUN CHAIR PROFESSORSHIPS
The School of Biomedical Engineering, Science, and Health Systems at
Drexel University invites nominations and applications for three newly
established endowed Calhoun Chair Professorships:
Calhoun Chair Professorship in Biomedical Information and Communication
Technologies
Calhoun Chair Professorship in Neuroengineering and Neurotechnology
Calhoun Chair Professorship in Tissue and Biotechnology Engineering
The preferred candidates will be energetic and visionary leaders with
an outstanding record of research and academic accomplishments in the
emerging areas of their respective fields. They will complement, build
on and extend the School's programs.
Drexel University is a private urban university located in center city
Philadelphia and is recognized for its traditionally strong
technological focus and career-integrated education. The School of
Biomedical Engineering Science and Health Systems (formerly the
Biomedical Engineering and Science Institute founded in 1961) is a
nationally recognized center for biomedical engineering and science
research and education. The School is launching a new undergraduate
program in biomedical engineering in Fall 1998.
The School enjoys national and international reputation in biomedical
ultrasound, biomedical imaging, biomedical systems and signal
processing, cardiovascular systems, biomechanics, biomaterials, tissue
and cellular engineering. New academic initiatives focus on biomedical
sensors and optics, human performance and neuroengineering,
bioinformatics and computational biomedicine, and health systems
technologies.
Metropolitan Philadelphia has one of the highest concentrations of
medical institutions, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry in the
nation. The School has close working relationship with select medical
schools and institutes, health care institutions and industries in the
region and has recently formed an Academic Alliance with Thomas
Jefferson University, a prominent medical university located in close
vicinity of the Drexel campus to further develop joint research and
educational programs. The School is also launching an initiative in
Bioinformatics with partnership with the Coriell Institute for Medical
Research (see Calhoun/Coriell Chair Professorship in Bioinformatics.)
