Forming new collaborations with National University of Ireland
In October 2013, Professor Camesano visited the National University of Ireland, Galway, in order to foster new collaborations between the WPI IGERT graduate program and NUI’s Network of Excellence for Functional Biomaterials. The visit was hosted by Dr. Abhay Pandit, Director of the Network and Professor of Biomedical Engineering. As part of the international component of the IGERT program, WPI PhD students will have the opportunity to conduct a collaborative research project at NUI during summer 2014. We expect this to be the start of a long and mutually beneficial cooperation between the two universities.
