About — Korie Grayson, PhD - (Re)Defining The Image of STEM LLC Growing up as the second child of two soldiers in the U.S Army has allowed me to hail from “everywhere, but nowhere.” My father always told my siblings and I that he wanted us to do something he and my mother did not get to do—go to college. So, I went. 

The BME department is excited to introduce a new speaker series of professionals from diverse backgrounds in and around Biomedical Engineering. Follow the link below to find out more.
