Benefits of hepatitis C treatment outweigh costs for patients with advanced disease, Stanford study shows
Engineering is indeed everywhere. Management Science & Engineering graduate student, Shan Liu, helped show how, despite the large price tag and some bad side effects, a "triple therapy" that combines.
A towering $60,000 bill a year of fierce, flu-like symptoms and a running risk of depression are among the possible costs of two new hepatitis C treatments. But according to Stanford University health policy researchers, they might be worth it.

Stanford Engineering professors named to National Academy of Engineering
Professors Peter W. Glynn and Helmut Krawinkler have been honored for their contributions to simulation methodology and stochastic modeling and for developing performance-based earthquake engineering.
Two Stanford Engineering faculty members whose contributions range from simulation modeling to earthquake engineering have been elected to the National Academy of Engineering (NAE).
The professors -- Peter W. Glynn and Henry Krawinkler -- were among 66 new members of the NAE, one of the highest professional distinctions accorded to an engineer.

Gator aggregator: Florida’s new engineering dean emphasizes collaboration and leadership
Alumni Profile
Cammy Abernathy has researched compound semiconductors for years, and what’s true in those materials is also true in engineering at large: individuals accomplish more when they team up with others. Now that Abernathy is the dean of the University of Florida’s College of Engineering (and the first woman to lead the college), she hopes to accelerate the interdisciplinary nature of research there. At the same time, she hopes to enhance the leadership skills of students, enabling them to build and work on global teams.
