Celebrating 20 years of Biomedical Engineering at Cornell

In September we celebrated twenty years of biomedical engineering at Cornell with a two-day event alongside the dedication of our brand new teaching space in Tang Hall on the engineering quad. The event included talks from the Meinig School’s three directors, founder Michael Shuler (2004-2014), Marjolein van der Meulen (2014-2024), and Claudia Fischbach-Teschl (2024-), alumni panel discussions and presentations on the School’s future directions.
