Biomedical Engineering Club and Carleton Faculty Members Honoured by IEEE

In June it was announced that CU@EMBS (an IEEE student biomedical engineering club at Carleton) was going to receive the Outstanding Performance Award from IEEE EMBS. IEEE EMBS is the largest international professional society for biomedical engineering and this award was for the best student club/chapter internationally. Some information was published internally a few months ago (http://carleton.ca/newsroom/info-brief/carleton-engineering-club-honoured-by-international-organization/)

Simultaneously, IEEE Ottawa EMBS, where three biomedical engineering faculty members from Carleton serve as executive members, received the Outstanding Chapter Award from IEEE EMBS (again, this recognition across all chapters internationally).

The awards were presented at the Annual IEEE EMBS International Conference in Boston MA end of August/beginning of September.

IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS) is the world’s largest international society of biomedical engineers. The organization’s 9,100 members reside in some 97 countries around the world. EMBS provides its members with access to the people, practices, information, ideas and opinions that are shaping one of the fastest growing fields in science.
