One of the trademarks of a great department is having faculty members who constantly strive for improvement. BME has recently seen three of its faculty, Drs. Xiaogang Hu, Jason Franz, and Devin Hubbard, attend the Summer Institutes on Scientific Teaching, a program that trains educators to create inclusive, student-centered classrooms that engage students to learn – as scientists do – through active problem solving and discussion. This is a highly effective strategy, especially in our own department, and we congratulate these three faculty for pursuing excellence and earning the distinction of being Scientific Teaching Fellows.
