American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering New Fellows.
Washington, DC - The American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) announced the election of 82 new members of the College of Fellows.
The newly elected Fellows were nominated and approved by current members of the College, consisting of over 900 scientists and engineers.
Professor Costas D. Maranas was select as a fellow for
outstanding contributions in computational design and optimization of biological systems, protein libraries, metabolic pathways, and regulatory networks.
Recipients of this honor are recognized for their outstanding achievements in medical and biological engineering.
A formal induction ceremony will be held during the Institute's Annual Event in Washington, D.C. on February 21, 2007.
The College of Fellows leads the way in technological advancement, advocating for public policies facilitating progress in medical and biological research and development to benefit the public.
Since 1991, AIMBE Fellows have helped to revolutionize medicine, engineering and related fields that enhance and extend the lives of people all over the world.
Counting several Nobel Prize winners among them, their work also helps protect the environment, leads to new national security safeguards and contributes to a better, healthier society in many other ways.
With Fellows in every U.S. state - and in nations around the world - the College includes the heads of engineering and medical schools at major universities, along with some of the most respected professors and researchers at those institutions.
Within academia, AIMBE Fellows are regularly recognized for their contributions in teaching, research, and innovation.
Fellows are members of the National Academy of Engineering, the Institute of Medicine and the National Academy of Sciences.
AIMBE Fellows are leaders in industry as entrepreneurs, directors of research and development, and the corporate boardroom.
Further, Fellows can be found outside the field of engineering, working in clinical settings and government.
AIMBE (www.aimbe.org) was founded in 1991 to establish a clear and comprehensive identity for the field of medical and biological engineering -
which is the bridge between the principles of engineering science and practice, and the problems and issues of biological and medical science and practice.
Representing over 75,000 bioengineers, AIMBE serves and coordinates a broad constituency of medical and biological scientists and practitioners,
scientific and engineering societies, academic departments and industries.
