Charles Goldstein, MSE \u201968, PhD, vice president of research and leader of Becton Dickinson (BD) Technologies, has enjoyed a long and illustrious career with the world-class organization.<\/p>\n

But he\u2019s never forgotten where his journey in engineering began. Throughout his professional career he\u2019s worked hard to ensure that the door to research and leadership opportunities at BD remains open for Hopkins engineering students who succeed him.<\/p>\n

Increasing interest in chemical biomolecular engineering among Hopkins students excites Goldstein, who serves on both the department Visiting Committee and the Whiting School National Advisory Council<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019m encouraged, particularly by the uptick in enrollment of students designating Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (ChemBE) as their major,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

His support for the Whiting School doesn\u2019t end with ChemBE. His relationship to the school has facilitated BD\u2019s sponsorship of Biomedical Engineering (BME) Design Day<\/a> for the past two years. The highly anticipated event represents the culmination of work by teams of BME students, who choose from among several real-world biomedical design projects and spend the year bringing them to fruition.<\/p>\n

Last year, one of the project\u2019s sponsors, Harry Silber, assistant professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins Heart and Vascular Institute, challenged a student team to develop a patient-friendly, industry-standard prototype for a noninvasive diagnostic device he had created to measure left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP). The condition is associated with fluid overload\u2014one of the primary causes of hospital admission for heart failure exacerbation. Currently, catheterization is the gold standard for measuring LVEDP. But Silber\u2019s device uses a finger pulse oximeter probe, commonly found in hospitals, to calculate a patient\u2019s pulse amplitude ratio, a measure that correlates positively to LVEDP.<\/p>\n

Five BME students, including Sung-Jim Nate Sunwoo, jumped at the challenge. \u201cWe were interested in determining how we could assess LVEDP noninvasively. The science of it intrigued us,\u201d Sunwoo says.<\/p>\n

The project proved to be a win-win. \u201cThe students gained an excellent understanding ofthe clinical need and underlying physiological concepts involved. I plan to incorporate their algorithms into future versions of the device,\u201d says Silber.<\/p>\n

Goldstein marvels at the collaborative spirit of today\u2019s Whiting School students. \u201cThey are more actively working with each other; there\u2019s a greater camaraderie than in the past,\u201d he says. Such collaboration will prepare students well for professional opportunities, he believes, like the one BD just opened to Whiting School graduates with a PhD or MSE degree.<\/p>\n

BD\u2019s Technology Leadership Development Program<\/a> invites applicants\u2014graduates from select engineering schools\u2014to apply to a highly selective program within BD. Participants are placed on an accelerated track, spending three consecutive two-year rotations in multiple businesses and locations within the company.<\/p>\n

The rotations, which are custom-designed focus in one area of expertise and rotate through different roles\u2014such as research, product development, and project leadership\u2014within a single business or product line.<\/p>\n

Says Goldstein, \u201cWe\u2019re preparing new graduates to become our next generation of leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
