Sept. 3: Lanning Lecture with Nancy L. Allbritton, dean, UW College of Engineering

You’re invited!

Please join us at 4 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 3, in ETRL 101 on the Pullman campus for the 2024 Lanning Distinguished Lecture, presented by Nancy L. Allbritton, dean, University of Washington College of Engineering.

Allbritton’s topic will be “Designing Functional Microdevices for Biomedical Research.” In this talk, she will discuss simple yet elegant designs to create platforms that are readily adopted by non-engineering experts facilitating widespread usage and ultimately commercialization.

Dr. Nancy L. Allbritton joined the University of Washington as the Frank & Julie Jungers Dean of Engineering in November 2019. In that capacity, she serves as the chief academic officer of the college and provides leadership to over 289 faculty and more than 8,500 students. The UW College of Engineering is a top 15 nationally ranked public university program with annual research expenditures exceeding $172 million. Allbritton is an international expert on multiplexed single-cell assays, microfabricated platforms for high-content cytometry combined with cell sorting, and microengineered stem cell-based systems for recapitulating human organ-level function.

Refreshments will be provided.
