Biomedical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin

The view from the top is pretty sweet?? Last week, Texas Engineering students, leadership, alumni, donors and the more than 300 construction workers who are building the new Engineering Discovery Building gathered to celebrate the "topping out" of the structure. This gathering celebrated the halfway point of the building’s construction. ? "The Engineering Discovery Building will be the new home of the Hildebrand Department of Petroleum and Geosystems Engineering and the McKetta Department of Chemical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin," said Roger T. Bonnecaze, dean of the Cockrell School of Engineering. "This building will bring students, faculty and staff together to learn, to discover and to create.?In just the first 10 years, thousands of chemical and petroleum engineering students will be educated, hundreds of patents filed and licensed, and dozens of start-ups will be created." ? Keep growing, EDB. We can’t wait to welcome you to the engineering campus in 2026!

#TexasBME Professor Pengyu Ren will be at Baylor University on Friday to share his expertise in #MolecularModeling.

Exciting news from The University of Texas at Austin's Biomedical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin! We're leading an innovative, interdisciplinary program that unites top minds across the Cockrell School of Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin, the College of Natural Sciences, The University of Texas at Austin, and The University of Texas at Austin, College of Pharmacy empowering Longhorns to revolutionize drug delivery and shape the future of health care: https://lnkd.in/gkrS8W7v

Our students learn a lot about a variety of things, including the power of consistency, pitching in, and motivating their teammates. The 2025 team does all of this and more. If you are a UT student who wants to excel as a member of the 2026 team, applications are live: https://lnkd.in/gYQVdEjv The University of Texas at Austin Biomedical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin Texas McCombs School of Business

Congratulations to our own #TexasBME Professor Andrew Dunn and the rest of the Dynamic Light team on this huge leap in #BloodFlow #Imaging for #Neurosurgery.

Just dropping a little sparkle of positivity on your feeds from Texas Engineers ?? Share with us something good that happened to you today in the comments ??

A big thank you to The University of Texas at Austin Associate Professor of Molecular Biosciences in the College of Natural Sciences, The University of Texas at Austin, Dan Dickinson for joining us to share his groundbreaking research on cell polarity — exploring how it’s regulated within tissues and evolves over time. His talk highlighted innovative single-cell and single-molecule techniques, merging in vivo biochemistry with genetic and cell biological methods to study polarity in living embryos. ? ? ? #TexasBME #CellPolarity #MolecularBiosciences #InnovativeResearch #BiomedicalEngineering #BiologicalMethods #Molecules #Cells

Magnets that think? Texas Engineers are pushing the boundaries of computing by developing artificial neurons made of magnetic materials ?? These artificial neurons can send and receive signals like brain cells, which are more reliable and long-lasting than previous attempts. Jean Anne Incorvia, associate professor in the Chandra Family Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (Texas ECE - UT Austin ECE), has made breakthroughs with this research. The artificial neurons gather information, send signals when needed, and then reset to add new information. These neurons can also keep working for a long time without losing efficiency, a major challenge. Learn how this research could lead to faster, smarter, and more energy-efficient computers to improve AI and self-driving cars and even make our everyday devices (like phones and laptops) last longer:
