@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!!!

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!

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.

[Bucknell Engineering @BU_ENGR]

We debuted a new College of Engineering Recognition Program last semester. Colleagues were nominated for a pair of awards that recognize significant contributions toward our strategic goals. Congratulations to Jessica Newlin, Kat Wakabayashi, Kelly Salyards and Ben Wheatley!

[Dhruv R. Seshadri, PhD @DhruvSeshadri]

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!

[Ben Wheatley @BenMuscles]

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.

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

[Mike Ferlazzo @MikeFerlazzo]

With hip injuries, doctors are often challenged by assessing precisely the strength of a patient’s hip. But a new study by researchers from @GeisingerHealth and @BucknellU, published in @SciReports – @Nature, may provide more precise #orthopedic guidance. https://t.co/07BsYtYOQg

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

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!!
