Biosketches:
Andres Kriete, PhD, is Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and Teaching Professor in the School of Biomedical Engineering, Science and Health Systems at Drexel University. Dr. Kriete received training in computational biology in academic, clinical and industrial environments and joined Drexel University in 2003. The focus of Dr. Kriete's research is on complex systems biology, which addresses principles like self-organization, top-down causation, robustness, and semantic information processing. We are only at the beginning to understand the full implications of such investigations in areas like development, aging, or the mind-body connection.

Jay Bhatt, Librarian for Engineering and Biomedical Engineering at Drexel University Libraries, is responsible for building library collections in biomedical engineering and engineering subject areas, in outreach, and in teaching information and research skills to faculty, researchers, and students. He provides individual and small group consultations, research support to faculty and students, and conducts instructional sessions for different classes as requested by faculty members. He is passionate about participating in conversations and raising awareness about Academic and Research Integrity, Open Access, Open Data, and Open Educational Resources in Engineering, amongst faculty and students.
