Two faculty members at the 人妻少妇专区鈥擝enjamin Miller and Marvin Doyley鈥攈ave been inducted as fellows of the
The institute鈥檚 College of Fellows is composed of the top 2 percent of medical and biological engineers, who are employed in academia, industry, clinical practice, and government.
As a result of health concerns, AIMBE鈥檚 annual meeting and induction ceremony scheduled for March 29-30 was canceled, but Miller and Doyley were remotely inducted as part of a total of 156 fellows who make up the Class of 2020.
, professor of electrical and computer engineering with joint appointments in biomedical engineering, and imaging sciences, was selected for 鈥渙utstanding contributions in developing algorithms for elastography and the application of elastography to vascular mechanics and disease.鈥�
Doyley joined the 人妻少妇专区 in 2008. His develops novel imaging methods for detecting disease more quickly and for determining how well patients are responding to therapy. Doyley鈥檚 primary research interests include cardiovascular imaging, breast cancer imaging, ultrasound beamforming, contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging, ultrasound elastography, magnetic resonance elastography, and pancreatic cancer imaging.
鈥淚t is an honor to be named an AIMBE fellow, which is due to the hard work of my research groups, past and present,鈥� Doyley says.
Doyley was also one of 20 faculty members nationwide recently selected for the first cohort of the , a program aimed at helping STEM faculty from underrepresented backgrounds ascend to leadership roles at colleges and universities.
, the Dean’s Professor of Dermatology with joint appointments in biomedical engineering, biochemistry and biophysics, and optics, was selected for 鈥渢he development and application of versatile optical biosensor platforms, including Arrayed Imaging Reflectometry and integrated photonic sensors.鈥�
Miller, who was also recently named a fellow of the , joined the Rochester faculty in 1996. He is focused on two areas of research: how molecules recognize RNA sequences; and how the optical properties of nanomaterials might aid in the development of new biosensors for biological investigations and clinical screenings. The hopes to pave the way toward compact, inexpensive biosensors that could replace current floor-standing clinical diagnostic systems with a cell phone鈥搒ized device.
鈥淏eing named an AIMBE Fellow recognizes the hard work my students and other group members have done over the years,鈥� Miller says, 鈥渁nd I hope it will spur us to continue to make new diagnostic tools for improving human health.鈥�
