Thank you for making 2018 a record-breaking year for the Biomedical Engineering Society! We have broken records for numbers of attendees at our Annual Meeting, for numbers of abstracts submitted, and for sponsors interested in supporting our Society’s meeting. The message is clear—biomedical engineering has never been more promising, more exciting and more diverse as a research discipline Wand as a profession. This year also marks the 50th Anniversary of the founding of the Society. With our Annual Meeting theme, “Celebrating the Past, Transforming the Future” we pay homage to the decades of dedicated volunteers and leaders who had a vision for a new discipline and interdisciplinary engineering community. BMES was founded in 1968 by 83 founding members with less than $3,000 in hand. These visionaries understood the value of bringing like-minds together, and continued to convene each and every year for 50 years. As we look at our Annual Meeting with 4,300+ in attendance, and a Society with nearly 7,000 members, we appreciate the value of creating this community and pay our respects to the founding members. 6 BMES 2018 | Atlanta PRESIDENT'S LETTER WELCOME We will have several 50th Anniversary celebrations throughout the meeting. Make sure you visit the 50th Anniversary booth on the expo floor to explore the50th Anniversary time capsule containing contributions from biomedical engineering firms and investigators, to be housed in the National Museum of Health and Medicine. On site, you can take pictures and write notes to future BMES members and place them in the time capsule. The 50th Anniversary efforts were supported by institutions and individuals that paid to sponsor the time capsule and celebratory events—you can see tiles commemorating their contributions all over the time capsule. And don’t miss the Friday Night Dessert Bash with live music from BEDrock, a band of biomedical engineering musicians—a perfect blend of the arts and STEM! Also, please join me in thanking Martine LaBerge for her leadership in anniversary planning. We are also grateful to Paul Fagette for his work on the 50th, as well as his 20+ years as the Society’s historian. And a special thanks to Clemson University for donating and constructing the 50th Anniversary Time Capsule. Over the next four days, please give special attention to our impressive line-up of keynote speakers. Things kick-off Thursday morning with Rashid Bashir delivering the Robert A. Pritzker Distinguished Lecture. A BMES Fellow, Dr. Bashir is a leading expert on the integration of biology, medicine, and engineering at the micro and nanoscale.

    Engineering for Society Boldly innovating to better our world 2016 | 2017 Chair’s Message | 1 Quick Facts | 2 SCHOLARSHIP REPORT Honors | 3 Our Faculty | 5 Chemical Engineering WE ARE A LEADER IN EXPERIENTIAL EDUCATION AND INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH, FOCUSED ON ENGINEERING FOR SOCIETY Dear Friends, The Department of Chemical Engineering has been on fire over the past five years. For example our undergraduate student body has tripled, our graduate student body has tripled, there has been over a 200% increase in research funding, and our faculty size has doubled. This has all culminated into our recognition by the U.S. News and World Report that over this five year period, we have experienced the greatest increase in graduate school rankings for any department ever on record. It is clear that our impact in chemical engineering education and research is at a record level and is poised for continual unprecedented growth in the years ahead. We offer degrees at all levels (Bachelor of Science, Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy) and are internationally renowned for high quality classroom-based education in conjunction with industrial work experience. Our top-rated (and one of the nation’s largest) Cooperative (Co-op) Education program was one of the first in the country and the Chemical Engineering Co-op program currently places students in over 55 companies spanning the areas of consumer products, plastics, biotechnology, nanotechnology, alternative energy, and petrochemicals, to name a few. We even place students in international co-op locations in the UK, France, Switzerland, China, and Vietnam. It is not hard to see why we have been ranked four times as the Best Internship/Career Service University by the Princeton Review.

Sohn, Chair Professor Amy E. Herr Professor Dorian Liepmann Fall 2014 Node-Pore Sensing: A Robust, High Dynamic Range Method for Multi-Parametric Screening of Biological Samples Copyright 2014 By Karthik Ratna Balakrishnan 1 Abstract Node-Pore Sensing: A Robust, High Dynamic Range Method for Multi-Parametric Screening of Biological Samples by Karthik Ratna Balakrishnan Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering - Mechanical Engineering University of California, Berkeley Professor Lydia L. Sohn, Chair Resistive-pulse sensing is a technique that allows for measurements of particles in a solution. The underlying principle relies on measuring the electrical resistance across a small pore connecting two reservoirs filled with fluid. As an insulating particle enters the pore, the particle displaces the conducting fluid, leading to an increase in the resistance measured. Pulse magnitude and width reveal information about the particle in transit. The size of the pulse magnitude corresponds to the size of the particle, while the width of the pulse represents the length of time the particle takes to transit the pore. We show that resistive pulse sensing can be used in combination with protein functionalization to achieve surface marker screening of small sample sizes. We analyze single satellite cells from muscle fibers of mice.
