Engineering a revolutionary method to measure cardiovascular stiffness

In a discovery that could revolutionize precision heart health care, Mizzou Engineering researchers have developed a way to measure cardiovascular stiffness—or the rigidity of arteries in your heart—based on data already being collected by traditional echocardiograms. “I consider this the most important work I’ve done in my career,” Professor Noah Manring said.

Team develops prototype for 4D printed medical implant that promotes regeneration of soft tissue

A Mizzou Engineering research team has successfully developed a prototype for a personalized medical implant that promotes the regeneration of soft tissue. The key is 4D printing, a 3D printing technique used on smart materials capable of changing function based on specific conditions.

Mizzou hosts Missouri Junior Science and Humanities Symposium

Mizzou Engineering hosted the Missouri Regional Junior Science and Humanities Symposium (JSHS), for high school students across the state of Missouri to present their research projects to faculty and student judges.

Siemens Healthineers interns make strides to improve health in mid-Missouri

Thanks to the University of Missouri’s Value Partnership with Siemens Healthineers, MU student Erica Goodin got the opportunity to observe the process of powering down an MRI machine at a local hospital. During her internship, Goodin also worked with electrical components and circuit diagrams to solve issues with the 7-Tesla MRI scanner that belongs to NextGen Precision Health. These were special experiences for the biomedical engineering major who plans to work with similar machines in her future career.

Photo album: why we love Mizzou Engineering 2024

Great people, student organizations, Engineers' Week, research...there's a lot to love about Mizzou Engineering. This Valentine's Day, students, faculty and staff came together to share all the reasons they love engineering at Mizzou.
