Dr. Andrew Dunn, assistant professor of biomedical engineering at The University of Texas at Austin, won a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award from the National Science Foundation (NSF), its most prestigious award for junior faculty. This five-year, $400,000 award will support Dunn's research developing new laser-based methods for quantitative imaging of blood flow in the brain.
