Dartmouth engineering professor Jane Hill has been inducted into the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) College of Fellows, one of the highest professional distinctions accorded to a medical and biological engineer.

The AIMBE College of Fellows comprised just 2 percent of medical and biological engineers in the country who have made outstanding contributions to “engineering and medicine research, practice, or education” and to “the pioneering of new and developing fields of technology, making major advancements in traditional fields of medical and biological engineering, or developing and implementing innovative approaches to bioengineering education.”

Hill says, “It is a wonderful honor to be elected by my peers to the AIMBE. The award is also a testament to the hard work my entire team has put into our research passion—faster detection of infections”

Hill was nominated, reviewed, and elected by peers and members of the College of Fellows for “outstanding contributions to the development, validation, and implementation of metabolomics in the early detection of lung infections.”
