About

Dr. Felder is a Clinical Associate Professor in the Richard and Loan Hill Department of Biomedical Engineering.  Dr. Felder’s current interests include:

  1. engineering education
  2. development of novel medical devices, with specialty in ophthalmology
  3. multimodal assessment of retinal oxygenation

Dr. Felder is co-director of the NIH-funded Clinical Immersion Program and co-developed the Biomedical Engineering education module for the National Society of Black Engineer's SEEK (Summer Engineering Experience for Kids) Program, the curriculum for which is here.  In 2017, he founded ORBITlab - an interdisciplinary collaboration for the development of novel ophthalmic medical devices - and served as Technical Director there until 2021.  Dr. Felder maintains an active research agenda, with 1.5M in grant funding awarded to date among each of his three interests.
