On October 20, 2011, the Fischell Department of Bioengineering (BioE) held its fifth Fischell Festival. The department's annual signature event featured a variety of presentations and activities, including a morning keynote address by U.S. Food and Drug Administration Chief Scientist Jesse L. Goodman, panel discussions on bioengineering career paths and entrepreneurship, a poster session, a career fair and information expo, and a Whiting-Turner Business and Entrepreneurial lecture presented by Jenny Regan, co-founder and CEO of Key Tech, a Maryland firm specializing in the commercialization of new technologies into medical devices and precision instruments.
