Join IEEE Rochester WIE on October 8 from 11 AM - 2 PM for:
Industry-Academia Engagement: A Next-Gen View at the University of Rochester

A key measure of a productive tech ecosystem is the successful transition of new graduates from academia into industry. With academia focusing on building a broader knowledge base, the industry-readiness of students for a successful transition necessitates dynamically evolving industry-academia collaborations. This event series initiated by IEEE Women in Engineering Rochester focuses on working with local partners to create awareness, address challenges, and promote talent retention within the local tech ecosystem; a key focus is on DIVERSITY & INCLUSION.

Registration is free, and lunch will be provided to in-person attendees.

Congratulations to Siladitya Khan (Graduate Student Member, IEEE) on receiving the 2023 IEEE Instrumentation & Measurement Society Fellowship!

The fellowship will support his graduate dissertation research with Professor Stephen McAleavey (Senior Member, IEEE) on developing and testing a non-invasive quantitative viscoelastic imaging system with Acoustic Radiation Force (ARF) induced shear wave elastography for mapping mechanical properties of infectious microenvironments.

Khan is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Biomedical Engineering within the Rochester Center for Biomedical Ultrasound and the recipient of the 2021 Donald M & Janet C Barnard Fellowship at Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Science.

The research project involves collaboration with Professor Marvin Doyley, Chair of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Dr. Akshaya Gupta from the Imaging Sciences department at the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC).

The fellowship award will provide financial support for research activities and facilitate professional development. It will complement Siladitya and Steve's earlier HSCCI grant (University of Rochester: Health Sciences Center for Computational Innovation) in the field of developing Viscoelasticity Imaging.

This advancement is particularly significant as it overcomes the traditional limitations of non-local estimation over homogeneous tissue. By leveraging the computational resources of the University of Rochester's High-Performance Computing nodes within the Center for Integrated Research Computing (CIRC), the project will enable local estimation of rheological properties over the scanned areas.

About the Conference

The STRATUS 2023 conference brings together academics, industry representatives, and domain specialists to share perspectives on this rapidly evolving field of a wide range of topics. Since its inception in 2016, STRATUS went from a one-day to a two-day and then to a three-day annual workshop and is now a three-day conference and includes previously recorded field trips.
