Research conducted by Andreas Andreou, a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) and member of the Center for Language and Speech Processing, as part of a $2 million contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) will advance bio-inspired event based camera architecture with embedded computation. The work will continue…

The cover of the July 2021 edition of the Journal of Biomedical Optics (JBO) features a paper written by Muyinatu Bell, an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) and the principal investigator for the Photoacoustic & Ultrasonic Systems Engineering (PULSE) Lab. The JBO is an open access journal that publishes…

The results of a multi-year collaboration involving ECE Professor John Goutsias were recently published in Nature Biomedical Engineering. The group used mathematics to uncover a likely key genetic culprit in the development of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). ALL is the most common form of childhood leukemia, striking an estimated 3,500 children and teens each year…

Three undergraduate students from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering presented their work at last week’s JHU DREAMS 2021 Virtual Presentation Event. Formerly Undergraduate Research Day, this event is now known as “Day of Undergraduate Research in Engineering, the Arts & Humanities, Medicine and the Sciences“. See below to find out more about the…

ROSEI will serve as the university's interdisciplinary home for ongoing research and education aimed at creating clean, renewable, and sustainable energy technologies.

The Johns Hopkins University’s Discovery Awards provide grant awards to cross-divisional teams, comprised of faculty and/or non-faculty members from at least two schools or affiliates of the university, who are poised to arrive at important discoveries or creative works. The expectation is that these awards will spark new, synergistic interactions between investigators across the institution…

The paper introduces a novel method to study allelic imbalances in DNA methylation, an epigenetic mark that plays an essential role in defining a cells' phenotype.

Muyinatu Bell, an ECE Assistant Professor and PULSE Lab Director, recently was awarded a $1 million grant through the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Smart and Connected Health (SCH) program, which aims “to accelerate the development and integration of innovative computer and information science and engineering approaches to support the transformation of health and medicine.” Bell’s…

PhD candidates Niharika Shimona D’Souza and Naresh Nandakumar – both members of The Neural Systems Analysis (NSA) Lab, which Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering assistant professor Archana Venkataraman is the PI for – have had papers selected to be presented at the International Conference on Medical Image Computing & Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI). The…

Pablo Iglesias, the ECE Edward J. Schaefer professor, recently had a paper published in Science Advances.
