In August 2024, Lehigh University and Good Shepherd signed a Memorandum of Understanding, laying out a 10-year vision to include interdisciplinary research collaborations and a jointly funded seed program to support new research. Spearheaded by the COH, the partnership is a bold collaboration that is redefining how academic and clinical institutions work together to improve the lived experience of people with disabilities. Madarshahian, a motor control researcher and data scientist, focuses on promoting neuromodulation and developing data-centric analytical tools to support evidence-based decision-making in clinical settings. She develops data-driven methods to personalize non-invasive stimulation strategies for individuals with neurological disorders. Lehigh students will be empowered to gain real-world training in rehabilitation and healthcare through internships and other applied learning opportunities at Good Shepherd. Discussions are also underway to create a joint lab space. The College of Health would like to thank our Lehigh colleagues, Dean’s Advisory Council members, parents, donors, community partners, alumni, faculty and staff for their vision, dedication and ongoing support. We’re thankful for their contributions to the College’s successes and significant growth over the past five years. We deeply appreciate our first cohorts of students, who continue to partner with us in building the college. As we envision the next five years, we invite you to join us in advancing our mission to end preventable disease and suffering, and support groundbreaking studies that leverage technology and community-based approaches to address pressing health challenges by visiting health.lehigh.edu/giving.
