We are putting Oklahoma on the Biomedical Engineering map!

The map of the state of Oklahoma with three dots representing Oklahoma City, Norman and Tulsa. The specifics of the map are in the text below.

The map of the state of Oklahoma demonstrates the various collaborative entities throughout the state including those in Oklahoma City: the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, Harold Hamm Diabetes Center, Stephenson Cancer Center, and the OU Health Sciences Center; Norman: the Stephenson School of Biomedical Engineering, other schools in the Gallogly College of Engineering, the Stephenson Research and Technology Center, Price College of Business, the Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences and the Tom Love Innovation Center; and Tulsa: the OU-Tulsa campus and the Laureate Institute for Brain Research.

Biomedical engineers enhance the quality of life through transformative research that provides solutions to complex medical challenges. From developing imaging tools that reduce the amount of patient exposure to radiation, developing quantitative imaging biomarkers for evaluating treatment responses of ovarian cancer or delivering photo thermal therapy unising single-walled carbon nanotubes combined to treat cancers more effectively, biomedical engineers are making an impact - one life at a time.

Our core focus areas include:

  • Immunoengineering and neuroengineering
  • Biomedical engineering and biomedical data science
  • Drug delivery, tissue engineering, and nanomedicine
