@TomasGF90 Congrats Tomas!! 🎉

Excited to see my recent NSF CAREER Award featured by Lehigh University! This support will help drive innovative research on increasing the efficacy and safety of CRISPR therapuetics through biomaterials engineering. Check out the article to learn more:

@hans_kainz @ERC_Research @univienna Awesome news Hans! So thrilled for you and looking forward to seeing the work - especially the simulations!!

Thrilled to share that I have been awarded an @ERC_Research Consolidator Grant! 🎉 This marks an exciting new chapter in my career at @univienna. A summary of my project is available here: univie.ac.at/en/research/re… Looking forward to the journey ahead this grant will bring!

@DrTammyTDarling Our intro to engr class worked with our farm on campus this semester. So I assigned a HW to volunteer at the farm or alternatively go up to the farm and meditate and reflect on meditation. Reading the meditation reflections has been AMAZING!!!

Vicarious joy! Reviewing submissions for this was unforgettable; other-focused kindness for the win. A few noteworthy creations: a dinner party for 1 (a caregiver), homemade tiramisu, a knitted scarf, a ceramic vase, homemade pesto for sandwiches, and TONS notes to caregivers💛💙

Captain Policano is a marvel on and off the racing course! #rayBucknell

Read all about one of the finest seasons in Bucknell athletic history! Bliss had a campaign for the history books! But for now, a retrospective will suffice! 📰: adobe.ly/3U6VYYv #rayBucknell | #FeelingBlissful

We're excited to see the work first-year engineers have done during the first seven weeks of the semester! The first of two ENGR 100 design expos this semester is Thursday, Oct. 10, from 2-4 p.m. in Gerhard Fieldhouse.

A new academic year officially begins today! In addition to welcoming nearly 200 engineers in the Class of 2028 to Bucknell, we want to welcome our new faculty. We look forward to their contributions!

Meet your Women's Cross Country captains! They will lead the charge! #rayBucknell

Come join our ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT virtual writing group - for those of us with a rebellious streak!!!

Best way to end your #ASB2024 is to join us for a meeting of the muscle minds 💪 See you at 2:30pm CT on Thursday @AmSocBiomech

#ASB2024 Early Career Faculty & Post Docs - Join us at Coopers Tavern thecooperstavern.com on Tuesday 8/6, 9-11 PM (so late, but we can do it!). See old colleagues, make new friends, & pretend that your bedtime isn't 10 PM. #Party @Vicon @BiomechNewbies @ASBPostdocs Please RT!

Our 4-week Engineering EXCELerator program wrapped up yesterday with 7 student groups presenting their bioinspired design, virtual reality, air quality & ChemE Car projects. All EXCELerators are members of the Class of 2028 who will return to campus in August for Orientation.

Working with Kelly and Kat over the last 4 years to redesign our introductory engineering course has been one of my most enjoyable experiences as faculty! I have learned so much from both of them.

Things are ramping up in the Seshadri Lab @LehighU @LehighBioE. We have 3 accepted posters for @BMESociety conf in Baltimore! Study starting on 120 @LehighSports athletes, and on-going efforts in @NSF ICORPS program. 1 paper accepted today, 3 soon to be submitted! We are hiring!

Thrilled that @PierreYvesRohan and I have been awarded an Albertine Foundation grant to fund our international collaboration!! Excited to work on age-related muscle impairments using clinical, in vitro, and in silico analyses. linkedin.com/posts/pierreyv…

Our Trackers & Fielders are gold medalists in the classroom! We led the Patriot League in most academic honor roll selections for the men's and women's teams! #rayBucknell | #BrainyBison

What an All-American throw looks like! Flying like an eagle to eternal glory! #rayBucknell | #FeelingBlissful

Thanks @MikeFerlazzo for highlighting our work! And excited we are already working on the next step of this project - one big step (wall sit?!?) towards the clinic!! @GeisingerRsrch

@megankillian Unfortunately they are already comitted (Duke @defratelab & UW) but the Wheatley -> Killian/Abraham pipeline will happen! 🦬💙

bucknell.edu/news/bucknell-… I was lucky enough to work with two students in my lab who won the NSF GRFP. I am amazed at what our students can accomplish, and Ally and Marianne are no exception. So thankful to be a part of their journey & eager to see what they will accomplish next!!
