...thankful both for Wyss’ generous donation and for the research it will fund.

One of the fastest growing majors in the United States, bioengineering represents a logical interdisciplinary trend that science—and academia in general—has taken in the last decade or so. The fusion of neuroscience and economics has produced the behavioral theories like “moral hazard,” which...
...Wyss proposal comes at a time when bioengineering—one of the fastest growing concentrations in the United States—is ready to take center stage at the University. Bioengineering was identified as an important priority five years ago, Provost Steven E. Hyman said, citing the transition of DEAS into its own school last fall as an example of a heightened commitment to the applied sciences...
