Robots, people, Life, and... Passion

Recent news: 
* We received a one-year, $50,000 award from the Clinical and Translational Science Institute at Children’s National (CTSI-CN) to support our project, “Tele-assistive Robotic Nurse for Human-Robot Collaboration in Neonatal Environment.”

* We received a two-year research award from GW OVPR CDRF program, with the first year budget of $47,500. Second year renewal is pending.
​
* My Master's student 
Rachael Bevill has been awarded the 2017-2018 Whitaker International Program Fellowship.  The Whitaker Fellowship is a funding opportunity for emerging U.S. leaders in biomedical engineering to build collaborative ties with individuals and institutions overseas.  Roughly 30 fellows are selected nationally each year. During the 2017-2018 academic year, Rachael will spend nine months in Stuttgart, Germany conducting research under Dr. Katherine Kuchenbecker, director of the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, Department of Haptic Intelligence.

* Our undergraduate researcher, Paul Azzi, has been awarded the Summer Undergraduate Program in Engineering Research (SUPER) scholarship~!

​* Two of my mentored teams have won the Invention & Entrepreneurship awards ($2,000 each)--Scott Downen et al., and Hifza Javed et al.--at the GW Research Days 2017. Good job~!
