Alexandra L. Rutz and Ismael Seáñez are set to join the faculty of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at McKelvey School of Engineering in the 2020-21 academic year, bringing the department’s total number of faculty to 24.
“We couldn’t be more pleased that with the hire of Professors Rutz and Seáñez, we brought not one, but two talented investigators who broaden our research strengths in neuroengineering and enhance our partnerships with neurosurgery,” said Lori Setton, the Lucy & Stanley Lopata Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Engineering and chair of the department.
