Greg Zaharchuk, MD, PhD, Inducted as 2020 AIMBE Fellow

March 30, 2020

The American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) has announced the induction of Greg Zaharchuk, MD, PhD, to its College of Fellows. 

The College of Fellows is comprised of the top two percent of medical and biological engineers in the country. The most accomplished and distinguished engineering and medical school chairs, research directors, professors, innovators, and successful entrepreneurs, comprise the College of Fellows.

AIMBE Fellows are regularly recognized for their contributions in teaching, research, and innovation. AIMBE Fellows have been awarded the Presidential Medal of Science and the Presidential Medal of Technology and Innovation and many also are members of the National Academy of Engineering, Institute of Medicine, and the National Academy of Sciences.

A formal induction ceremony is usually held during the AIMBE’s Annual Meeting at the National Academy of Sciences Great Hall in Washington, DC. This year, out of an abundance of caution for the safety of the entire community, the 2020 Annual Meeting has been cancelled.

AIMBE’s mission is to recognize excellence in, and advocate for, the fields of medical and biological engineering in order to advance society. Since 1991, AIMBE‘s College of Fellows has lead the way for technological growth and advancement in the fields of medical and biological engineering. Fellows have helped revolutionize medicine and related fields in order to enhance and extend the lives of people all over the world. They have also successfully advocated for public policies that have enabled researchers and business-makers to further the interests of engineers, teachers, scientists, clinical practitioners, and ultimately, patients.

Congratulations, Dr. Zaharchuk!
