Expanding University Initiatives

Dr. James L. Raper, ’79

Dr. James L. Raper, ’79, chose to support Â鶹ÊÓƵ students with a planned gift that includes an endowed fund and endowed professorship that support nursing research and education.

Sara Bayramzadeh, Ph.D., serves as coordinator and Elliot Professor in the Healthcare Design Program in Â鶹ÊÓƵ's College of Architecture and Environmental Design.

Research awarded a $2.4 million grant to study how to use design as a tool to improve efficient care in Level I trauma rooms that stabilize and save the lives of patients. 

Angela Ridgel, Ph.D.

A Â鶹ÊÓƵ researcher has designed a bicycle specially tailored to Parkinson’s patients. The bike is based on a tandem bicycle model – a bike ridden by two people.

Torsten Hegmann, director of Â鶹ÊÓƵ's Advanced Materials and Liquid Crystal Institute, shows the area in the basement of the Integrated Sciences Building where a new X-ray scattering machine will be installed in 2021.

Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s Advanced Materials and Liquid Crystal Institute soon will be home to a new X-ray scattering instrument capable of examining materials in scales from as small as a fraction of a nanometer to as large as several micrometers.
