SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2026 Wilbert Steffy Lectureship with Pinar Keskinocak
DESCRIPTION:Pinar Keskinocak is the H. Milton and Carolyn J. Stewart School Chair and Professor in the School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) at Georgia Tech. She is the co-founder and Director of the Center for Health and Humanitarian Systems (CHHS). Previously\, she served as Associate Chair for Faculty Development in ISyE\, College of Engineering ADVANCE Professor\, and Interim Associate Dean for Faculty Development and Scholarship.\n\nHer research spans supply chain management and applications in health and humanitarian systems\, with a multidisciplinary\, multi-stakeholder perspective. Recent work has focused on disease modeling\, evaluating interventions\, resource allocation\, process improvement for healthcare delivery\, and disaster preparedness\, response\, and recovery. Her research has appeared in leading journals and has been supported by government agencies\, industry\, NGOs\, and foundations.\n\nHer leadership and service within Georgia Tech\, professional communities\, and nationwide have been extensive\, including serving as President of INFORMS.  Dr. Keskinocak is a Fellow of INFORMS and IISE. She is the recipient of the INFORMS President’s Award (2024)\, George E. Kimball Medal (2024)\, Women in Operations Research and Management Science Award.\n\nInfectious diseases continue to affect millions of people around the world.  Pharmaceutical or non-pharmaceutical interventions such as testing\, vaccines\, or treatments help control their spread.   Resources for the deployment of interventions are often limited\, and decisions regarding what\, when\, and how to deploy need to incorporate various short- and long-term considerations\, as well as human behaviors.  In this presentation\, we will illustrate these challenges using a few examples from infectious diseases that are targeted for elimination or eradication\, and share results from modeling studies to help inform these complex decisions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering (BME 500) Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Convergence of light\, devices\, and molecules to detect and treat cancer\n\nAbstract:\nSurgeons traditionally rely on vision and touch to distinguish cancerous from healthy tissue\, which risks incomplete tumor removal. To enhance precision\, we developed Cancer Viewing Glasses (CVGs) that provide real-time intraoperative visualization of tumors and sentinel lymph nodes without disrupting the surgical workflow. CVGs detect near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) from tumor-targeted molecular probes and project both NIRF and visible light to a head-mounted display\, enabling direct access to the surgical field under normal lighting conditions. In both mouse models and cancer patients\, CVGs enabled real-time image guidance for complete tumor resection\, with ongoing clinical studies demonstrating improved surgical throughput and accuracy.     \n\nBio:\nDr. Samuel Achilefu is the inaugural Chair and Professor of the Biomedical Engineering Department at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas\, Texas\, USA. He also holds the Lyda Hill Distinguished University Chair and is a Professor of Radiology and the Simons Cancer Center. He is an international leader in optical and multimodal imaging\, image-guided cancer surgery\, portable imaging devices\, and nanotechnology. His innovative research and more than 70 U.S. patents have significantly contributed to laboratory and clinical medicine. Dr. Achilefu is a member of the National Academies of Engineering and Medicine. He is also a fellow of the National Academy of Inventors\, AAAS\, AIMBE\, and many other professional societies. He has received over 20 national and international awards\, including the Briton Chance Award.
