More than 50 million people in the United States have some form of hearing loss. The intricate science around improving hearing is advancing at a rapid pace with the help of innovative researchers like Jack Noble, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering. On this episode of the Quantum Potential podcast,… Read More

Jack Noble always admired his father’s work as a family practice physician, particularly the simple aspect of helping people. It’s a sentiment the Vanderbilt engineer has carried over into his own work of developing innovative technology that aims to not only improve patients’ hearing, but also assist… Read More

A Vanderbilt engineering professor is working with clinical colleagues to develop and validate an augmented reality (AR) vision guidance system to help surgeons place cochlear implants more precisely. The guidance system leverages emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technology and uses inexpensive, commonly available equipment, making it practical for many operating rooms. Read More

Vanderbilt researchers have received a $1.2 million grant from the National Science Foundation to develop a smart microscope system that uses artificial intelligence to help scientists better understand how cells behave, particularly in diseases like cancer. Read More

We spend nearly one-third of our lives asleep, yet sleep disorders often go undiagnosed, despite their strong links to cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders, and depression. A next-generation wearable device developed by researchers could change that. Yayun Du, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at Vanderbilt University, is the… Read More

VISE Spring Seminar to be led by Yayun Du, PhD Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Date: Thursday, March 20, 2025 Location: Stevenson Center 5326 Time: 11:45 am for lunch; noon start Title: Advancing Health Monitoring: Wearable and Implantable Bioelectronics for Cardiovascular,… Read More

Four Vanderbilt engineering students working in the fields of computer science and electrical and computer engineering won prestigious best paper awards at the 2025 SPIE Medical Imaging conference held Feb. 16-20 in San Diego. Read More

Visitors to Nashville’s Adventure Science Center can get a new perspective of themselves with an augmented reality (AR) anatomy that creates the illusion of an X-ray view of the body’s muscles and bones. Read More

  Members of six VISE labs affiliated with the Vanderbilt Institute for Surgery and Engineering (VISE) traveled to Vancouver to take part in the 26th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention. Like-minded scientists from around the world gather yearly at the MICCAI conference to share their… Read More

This past summer, 13 Vanderbilt undergraduates were selected to work on projects focused on epilepsy, miniature soft climbing robots, stroke treatment, kidney disease research, cancer resection and surgical skill assessment as part of the Vanderbilt Institute for Surgery and Engineering’s Summer Fellows Program (VSF).
