The J. Crayton Pruitt Family Department of Biomedical Engineering regrets the passing of Dr. William G. “Bill” Luttge, the founding executive director of the McKnight Brain Institute at the University of Florida. In addition to his many contributions to the university, the department is appreciative of his assistance in the formative stage of the department, particularly in providing research space for department faculty before the completion of the Biomedical Sciences Building, the current home of the department.
