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.)
