Otto Schmitt Lecture Series

The IEM Otto Schmitt Distinguished Lecture Series is designed to foster discussion of the grand challenges for engineering in medicine. IEM invites national opinion leaders in research, industry, and government to give one or two talks each academic year.

These public lectures are named in honor of Dr. Otto Schmitt, a longtime University professor of biophysics, bioengineering, and electrical engineering, who made significant contributions to a wide range of fields including submarine detection, electrocardiography, and quality of life measures.
