Wallace H. Coulter Foundation BME Lecture Series 2021-2022
Through the generous support of the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation, the Department of Biomedical Engineering facilitates weekly lectures each year during academic terms. Experts in all areas of Biomedical Engineering and from around the world are invited to provide a research seminar, meet with faculty and students, and learn about our academic and research facilities.
The lectures are a great platform intended for the community, students, faculty, and staff to meet and network with leading experts in the Biomedical field and industry. Come join us every week in person or virtually.
