An Inside Look
ENG researchers from across disciplines are joining forces to produce images and insights into how neurons and other cells work By Patrick L. Kennedy An electrical engineer, a biomedical engineer, and a physicist walk into a lab. Wait—make that an electrical engineer, two biomedical engineers, a materials science engineer, and a physicist. And, so far, […]
ENG Seniors Celebrate with Virtual Block Party
By Patrick L. Kennedy “You’re gonna make me emotional!” Four seniors in computer engineering are sitting around a table, looking back on their four years at Boston University and revealing what they’ll miss. Norman A. Toro Vega is mock-chastising Gabriel A. Ramos Rivera for dialing up the session’s sentimentality quotient, but then he echoes his […]
