Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to measure changes of total hemoglobin concentration, Δ[Hb]total, and relative vascular oxygenation Δ[HbO2] in rat mammary and prostate tumors in response to hyperoxic gas interventions. 19F NMR of vascular perflubron was used to compare with the NIRS observations. The consistent trends between Δ[Hb]total and ΔVT-blood demonstrated that the NIRS can serve as an accurate, non-invasive, real time, monitoring tool for tumor vascular volume measurement. Meanwhile, these results also demonstrated that different types of tumors may respond to hyperoxic gases differently, and that NIRS could be used to assess vascular oxygenation changes non-invasively for guiding tumor therapy.

An interactive electrophysiology training resource was developed for computational modeling of cellular bioelectric activity. Electrophysiology research projects were integrated into education and training by this resource called iCell which is also known as the interactive cell modeling tool (http://***/icell). iCell is used as a simulation-based teaching and learning tool for electrophysiology. The site consists of JAVA models of various cardiac cells and neurons, and provides simulation data of their bioelectric activities at single cell level. Each JAVA-based model is menu-driven and presents options to change model parameters or conditions, run and view simulation results. iCell has been used as a teaching and learning tool for seven graduate courses at the jointbiomedicalengineeringprogram of University of Memphis and University of Tennessee. Scientists from the fields of biosciences, engineering, life sciences and medicine in 17 different countries have also tested and utilized iCell as a simulation-based teaching, learning and collaboration environment.

Mentoring is significant personal and professional assistance given by a more experienced person to a less experienced person during a time of transition. Transitions from high school to university, from university to graduate school are difficult. Organizing and administering mentoring programs in schools or in professional societies provide good recruitment and retention of female students in engineering. biomedicalengineering (BME) is the engineering discipline that has the highest percentage of female degree recipients and tenure/tenure-track teaching faculty as seen presented in "ASEE Profiles of engineering and engineering Technology Colleges, 2001 Education. engineering Education by the Numbers". Thus there is a great potential for female role models, mentors and mentees in BME. Recently, I have a developed a mentoring program for women at the joint Graduate biomedicalengineeringprogram of University of Memphis (UM) and University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UT). Currently our program focuses on peer-mentoring and community building. We follow the book "Giving Much/Gaining More: Mentoring for Success" by Dr. Wadsworth for our meetings and activities to provide a support and discussion group, and environment to women in their transition time of the BME graduate studies. Our future goal is to expand our mentoring program to female students in our engineering school since we believe that the women in BME are excellent role models, mentors and mentees to women in other engineering disciplines.
