From Brazil to Florida Polytechnic University: Using his passion for computer science to fulfill his purpose

Editor’s Note: At Florida Poly, we’re 100 percent STEM so it’s only natural that we’re turning National STEM Day 2018 (Nov. 8) into a weeklong celebration of science, technology, engineering, and math. Up first is a focus on the “science” in STEM. The idea of going back to school after spending more than two decades […]
Cutting-edge research at Florida Polytechnic University aims to save babies’ lives
LAKELAND, Fla. – Faculty and student researchers at Florida Polytechnic University are developing a breakthrough method that would result in more accurate maternal and fetal electro-cardiogram (ECG) signals, so that babies can be properly treated for cardiac defects diagnosed before birth. Scientists and engineers have been striving for years to obtain nearly perfect fetal and […]
