A virtual reality system that helps surgeons practice complex procedures before the first incision. AI-powered models that suggest personalized treatments. This is what the future of health care will look like — and the new Duke Center for Computational and Digital Health Innovation will drive the research that makes it possible. “We’re bringing together engineers, basic scientists, clinicians — all together to achieve our mission: to find, track, and treat human disease,” says Amanda Randles, director of the center and the… Duke Today /2025/04/new-center-brings-technological-advances-future-health-care Thu, 10 Apr 2025 16:15:12 -0400 Duke Today Schools Feed Biomedical Engineering|Computer Science|Electrical and Computer Engineering|Faculty|Pratt School of Engineering|School of Medicine|Surgery A New Way to Understand Brains and Behavior /2025/03/new-way-understand-brains-and-behavior Pratt School of Engineering /2025/03/new-way-understand-brains-and-behavior Tue, 25 Mar 2025 09:19:15 -0400 Duke Today Schools Feed Biomedical Engineering|Pratt School of Engineering Materials Morph for Easier Health Monitoring /2025/03/materials-morph-easier-health-monitoring Xiaoyue Ni is creating wearable technology that goes beyond just tracking your steps, for everything from pregnancy to sleep patterns Duke Today /2025/03/materials-morph-easier-health-monitoring Wed, 19 Mar 2025 12:49:10 -0400 Duke Today Schools Feed Biomedical Engineering|Pratt School of Engineering Creating Digital Twins to Save Lives /2025/03/creating-digital-twins-save-lives Researcher pioneers computer models that non-invasively diagnose disease Duke Today /2025/03/creating-digital-twins-save-lives Wed, 12 Mar 2025 10:31:25 -0400 Duke Today Schools Feed Biomedical Engineering|Pratt School of Engineering|School of Medicine Life-Changing Innovation: From Our Labs to the Ones You Love /2025/03/life-changing-innovation-our-labs-ones-you-love Duke launches new campaign highlighting how research impacts people across the region University Communications and Marketing /2025/03/life-changing-innovation-our-labs-ones-you-love Fri, 07 Mar 2025 17:15:23 -0500 Duke Today Schools Feed Biomedical Engineering|Department of Medicine|Faculty|Neurosurgery|North Carolina|Pratt School of Engineering|School of Medicine|School of Nursing|Surgery|Trinity College of Arts & Sciences Harnessing the Body’s Ability to Heal Itself /2025/03/harnessing-bodys-ability-heal-itself Biomaterials created in a lab encourage cells to grow Duke Today /2025/03/harnessing-bodys-ability-heal-itself Wed, 05 Mar 2025 14:41:11 -0500 Duke Today Schools Feed Biomedical Engineering|Pratt School of Engineering Activating Complex Regions of the Genome to Treat Rare Diseases /2025/02/activating-complex-regions-genome-treat-rare-diseases Pratt School of Engineering /2025/02/activating-complex-regions-genome-treat-rare-diseases Thu, 13 Feb 2025 11:59:29 -0500 Duke Today Schools Feed Biomedical Engineering|Faculty|Pratt School of Engineering|students, graduate and professional GPS for Neurosurgeons: Advances in Treatment of Tremors /2025/02/gps-neurosurgeons-advances-treatment-tremors Biomedical engineering professor Cameron McIntyre’s research allows doctors to see a patient’s brain in three dimensions. Using this hologram, neurosurgeons can perform complex surgeries to alleviate the tremors associated with Parkinson’s disorder and epilepsy. McIntyre’s research on this project is supported by two National Institutes of Health grants.
