Celebrating #WomeninScience #February11 Zhenzhen Wang, a #HopkinsBME PhD student co-advised by @Jere_je_je and Prof. Aleksander S. Popel, is developing scalable, data-efficient, and interpretable AI algorithms that enhance cancer diagnosis and treatment planning.

Tomorrow is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science (#February11)! This week we celebrate by spotlighting some of the many brilliant women scientists of @JHUBME, who are breaking new ground and mobilizing the next generation of women in STEM. #WomenInScience

Medical research shows that snail mucus can create a strong adhesive, repair tissue, treat inflammation, & slow the growth of tumors.  Two JHU students are working to reduce snail cruelty and reimagine snail mucus-based drugs and products. #WorldCancerDay

.@njdurr is partnering with Dartmouth researchers to advance tumor-removal surgeries for cancer patients. The researchers aim to improve robotic cancer surgeries by visualizing critical structures that are often unintentionally injured. #WorldCancerDay

Using computational tools, researchers from Johns Hopkins have developed a method to assess which patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer could benefit from immunotherapy. #WorldCancerDay

Two student-led teams at #HopkinsBME are working on automating fine-needle aspiration methods to bridge diagnostic gaps in Sub-Saharan Africa. The teams aim to introduce new technology to find breast cancers with greater accuracy. #WorldCancerDay

Johns Hopkins scientists say they have developed an artificial lymph node that can be implanted under the skin. It is designed to act like a learning hub and stimulator to teach immune system T-cells to recognize and kill cancer cells. #WorldCancerDay

Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a system aimed at improving the rate of survival for those with esophageal cancer —particularly those in less-developed areas—through earlier diagnosis. #WorldCancerDay

A JHU-led research team has developed a pill-sized capsule that, when swallowed by a patient, can diagnose, monitor, & treat gastrointestinal diseases including Barrett’s esophagus, a condition known to be a precursor to esophageal cancer. #WorldCancerDay

#HopkinsBME PhD student Ian McKnight is researching the biological mechanisms of allergies in the @WilsonLab_JHU. His quest to develop a long-term allergy treatment is deeply personal. Read more about his work, and his journey to being a scientist, here:

Doctors could soon reduce epilepsy misdiagnoses by up to 70% using a new tool that turns routine electroencephalogram, or EEG, tests that appear normal into highly accurate epilepsy predictors, a Johns Hopkins University study has found.

.@NTrayanova of #HopkinsBME was recently quoted in @Forbes on the topic of digital twin technology. Check it out ⬇️⬇️⬇️

The #HopkinsBME ISPEED program is a residential, four-week summer program for talented high-school students who are passionate about exploring concepts in biomedical engineering. Register for our virtual info session on 2/5 at 7pm EST:

A pivotal experience in a Hopkins lab inspired Roger Hajjar, '86, to forge a career at the intersection of engineering and medicine.
