Biomedical Engineering announces today the merger of the Medical Physics graduate program with the Biomedical Engineering program.  A welcome reception was held to welcome the new students and faculty to the J. Crayton Pruitt Family Department of Biomedical Engineering.  Dean Abernathy explained that this merger will create synergism because of the overlap in the programs.  The Medical Physics faculty (Dr. Hintenlang, Dr. Bolch, and Dr. Gilland) will become BME faculty members.
