National Student Exchange
Opportunities are available through the
National Student Exchange, a study away opportunity in the United States, Canada, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Please direct enquiries to Leah Panganiban
lpanga@uw.edu for a brochure and
application. I will work with them to help select campuses that will fit
their personal and academic needs and interests.
The National Student
Exchange gives our eligible students access to the resources of nearly
200 member colleges and universities which range in size from some of
the largest research universities to some of
the best, small liberal arts colleges. NSE includes Hispanic Serving
Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Asian
American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions; and a
number of ethnically mixed campuses. Since its
beginning in 1968, NSE has placed more than 110,000 students for
exchange.
Our students can
participate for a single term or an academic year to access courses and
programs not available here. Students also participate in NSE to look
for graduate schools or employment opportunities.
Since the majority of our students are from this area, it is a great
benefit for them to have exposure to other areas of the country and to
other academic settings. The changes seen in student attitudes,
understanding of other people in other settings, maturity,
risk-taking, and decision-making are similar to the experiences of
students who study internationally.
Among other
criteria, students qualify for the program by being in good standing,
having a cumulative 2.5 GPA, being a full-time student, presenting
academic and personal goal statements and securing recommendations,
and participating in an interview process. Prior to exchange, the
student must have secured a written advising agreement.

3D pathology to enhance pancreatic cancer diagnosis
Thursday April 9th 5:00 pm

Research Scientist/Co-Investigator

Mechanical Engineering
In the US, pancreatic cancer is the most lethal across all cancers. This is due to the fact that what causes pancre-atic cancer and how it exactly presents in the body is still by expert accounts relatively unknown. For a traditional diagnosis, biopsies are procured from patients, processed in pathology and observed on glass slides (i.e., in 2D) using simple brightfield microscopy. So what happens when a 3D microscope becomes available? For comparison, computed tomography (CT) brought X-ray imaging into 3D in the mid-1970s and over the last 30 years spun-off many ancillary, but important developments for radiology & clinical medicine. To this end, our research aim is to directly aid pathologists in the early detection of pancreatic cancer by using brightfield 3D microscopy to rapidly and nondestructively image whole, intact tissue biopsies that are directly procured from patients. 3D visualization & reconstruction of biopsies (prior to pathology) may provide a fundamental gain of information (3D morphology, tissue architecture, spatial distribution of cancer cells, etc.) that best represents the in vivo disease state. This information is otherwise inherently lost through tissue sectioning and traditional pathology. Additionally, this vital optical information may be provided to clinicians with little to no cost in time, effort, or the patient sample, which may permit our 3D microscope to be seamlessly integrated within the current pathology workflow and paradigm.
Ronnie joined HPL in 2012 after receiving his PhD in bioengineering from the University of Washington. Currently, his research ob-jective is to aid pathologists in the early detection & diagnosis of pancreatic cancer by directly applying 3D imaging (OPTM) and mi-crofluidic technology to core biopsies (CBs) obtained from patients. Project aims include 1) 3D optical imaging of pancreatic CBs, 2) 3D reconstruction and image processing, 3) exploratory research of whole tissue staining & histopathology, 3) millifluidics device development and 5) novel instrumentation. The project is interdisciplinary and a collaborative venture between mechanical and bioengineering, UW pathology and private industry (VisionGate, Inc.; Nortis, Inc.).
