Just got back from a productive regional @aimbe event in Seattle! Together with co-host UW, we brought together legislative offices, AIMBE Fellows and Emerging Leaders, academic researchers, foundations, and industry bioengineers, for a day of innovation, advocacy and networking!
Nearly 200 science advocates met with 100+ offices on Capitol Hill to make the case for robust NSF funding. At the CNSF Science Showcase, 16 #NSFfunded teams demonstrated how NSF investments drive discovery, innovation, #STEM talent and U.S. competitiveness.
Excited to share our medical robotics research with #NIH leadership and U.S. Congressional staff in the #NIBIB Congressional Tour, showcasing our research on engineering artificial cilia for active airway mucus clearance, translating #medical#robotics toward clinical impact!
Pleased to share an extensive interview I did with host Cameron Sabet, as part of his “Cutting to the Case” series on YouTube. We discuss my lab’s cancer and immune cell research, the field of oncology more generally, and the important work of @aimbe

Very productive day in DC yesterday with @aimbe : held a congressional briefing on musculoskeletal pain, and visited my Texas lawmakers to advocate for science research funding!
@riceengineering professor and @aimbe president Michael King shares how biomedical research impacts society—from human health to a thriving economy. This summer, he will meet with key decision makers to encourage investment in research at the federal and state levels.
As President of @aimbe, I’ve been raising awareness of how biomedical research impacts society—from human health to a thriving economy. I’ve enjoyed meeting with key decision makers to encourage investment in research at the federal and state levels.
Great day on capitol hill today meeting with legislative staffers from the house and senate about the impact of ARPAH funding! Proud to advocate on behalf of @aimbe and @riceuniversity
I was grateful for the opportunity to give a presentation (and panel discussion) to the @CPRITTexas Oversight Committee yesterday on the topic of AI + Cancer, with fellow AI researchers David Jaffray and Thomas Yankeelov…

@aimbe
Delighted to have joined the 2026 @aimbe Annual Event “Views by Two” session on AI and Drug Targets for Therapeutics, alongside Anindita Saha from the @FDA_Drug_Info, who brought the policy perspective to the conversation.
We are entering a moment in which AI can fundamentally reshape how we discover and develop therapeutics. It was a pleasure to discuss this evolving landscape at the intersection of science, medicine, and policy, and to exchange ideas about the opportunities ahead.
Congratulations to Media Lab Professor @dagdevirencanan on being inducted into the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (@AIMBE) College of Fellows as part of the 2026 class! https://t.co/kXNXs4LvPI
