WASHINGTON, D.C. — The American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) has announced the induction of Grace C.Y. Peng, Ph.D., Director of Mathematical Modeling, Simulation and Analysis Programs, National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) and Chair of the Interagency Modeling and Analysis Group (IMAG), National Institutes of Health, to its College of Fellows.

Election to the AIMBE College of Fellows is among the highest professional distinctions accorded to a medical and biological engineer. The College of Fellows is comprised of the top two percent of medical and biological engineers. College membership honors those who have made outstanding contributions to “engineering and medicine research, practice, or education” and to “the pioneering of new and developing fields of technology, making major advancements in traditional fields of medical and biological engineering, or developing/implementing innovative approaches to bioengineering education.”

Dr. Peng was nominated, reviewed, and elected by peers and members of the College of Fellows for “creation of the Interagency Modeling and Analysis Group and the Multiscale Modeling Consortium, and promoting new neurotechnology development.“
