Four faculty members from the University of North Carolina (UNC) have been inducted into the College of Fellows for the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE). This prestigious honor recognizes the top 2% of engineers in biomedical and biological engineering for their exceptional contributions to research, education, and practice. Ronit Freeman, an associate professor in the UNC College of Arts and Sciences and the Eshelman School of Pharmacy, was acknowledged for her innovative biomimetic materials that address global health challenges. Yevgeny Brudno, an associate professor in biomedical engineering, focuses on enhancing drug delivery systems for cancer immunotherapy. Michael Daniele, a professor in biomedical engineering and electrical engineering, researches soft nanomaterials and wearable health monitoring devices. Lastly, Matthew Fisher, who leads the Translation Orthopaedic Research Laboratory, is recognized for his work in musculoskeletal biomechanics and tissue engineering. A formal induction ceremony took place in April, celebrating the achievements of 175 new AIMBE fellows.
