CSE associate professor Xiaolei Huang aims to harness AI to improve medical imaging.

Artificial intelligence—commonly known as AI—is already exceeding human abilities. Self-driving cars use AI to perform some tasks more safely than people. E-commerce companies use AI to tailor product ads to customers’ tastes more quickly and precisely than any breathing marketing analyst can.

And soon AI will be used to “read” biomedical images more accurately than medical personnel alone—providing better early cervical cancer detection at lower cost than current methods.

Dan M. Frangopol, the Fazlur R. Khan Endowed Chair of Structural Engineering and Architecture, was selected by the Lehigh Valley section of the American Society of Civil Engineers (LVASCE) as the 2016 Civil Engineer of the Year.

The ever-increasing availability of digital information has far-reaching consequences. At this year's Data X Symposium, three new faculty members, each hired through Lehigh’s Data X Initiative, explored these consequences in the areas of marketing, communication and computer science. They were joined by colleagues from Northwestern University, Penn State and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, who gave complementary presentations.

To heal small bone fractures — like those in a wrist, finger or ankle — a cast or splint is usually all that is needed to promote regrowth. Once stable, the bone tissue — a living material — regenerates and heals.

Lehigh's annual Materials Camp is sponsored by ASM International.

Crystal growing, 3D printing, and explosive demonstrations with thermite — a pyrotechnic substance — were all on the agenda for 16 students from area high schools during Lehigh University's 2017 Summer Materials Camp.

U.S. Rep. Charles W. Dent recently paid a visit to Lehigh’s Center for Photonics and Nanoelectronics (CPN) and toured its Smith Family Laboratory for Optical Technologies.

Dent, a Republican who represents Pennsylvania’s 15th congressional district, spoke for 90 minutes with CPN faculty and representatives of the photonics industry in the Lehigh Valley.

Lehigh University has established a new Department of Bioengineering in the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science. Formally announced on July 1, 2017, the new Department will build upon Lehigh’s popular bioengineering undergraduate and graduate programs, which were initiated in 2002 and 2009, as well as extensive interdisciplinary bioengineering research being pursued across the Rossin College and the University.

Big Data holds great promise to change healthcare for the better. But its potential will not be reached until healthcare providers improve the efficiency with which data is shared and the accuracy with which it is interpreted.

Dan M. Frangopol, the Fazlur R. Khan Endowed Chair of Structural Engineering and Architecture in the department of civil and environmental engineering, has been elected an Honorary Member of the Romanian Academy.

Founded in Bucharest in 1866, the Romanian Academy promotes the study of Romania’s literature and history and the Romanian language, as well as scientific research. The academy has 181 acting members who are elected for life.
