BMES grants its prestigious Fellow designation to select members who have demonstrated excellence in the field. To become a Fellow, members must have demonstrated impactful achievements and have made significant contributions to the biomedical engineering community. The BMES Board of Directors grants this distinguished honor.

Each year, BMES members whose contributions to the biomedical engineering field have been exceptional, qualify for this nomination. After applications are thoroughly reviewed and evaluated by the Fellows Nominating Committee, recommended individuals will be presented to the Board of Directors for confirmation.
