If you enjoy learning as much as Dr. Mehran Mehregany, director of the Case School of Engineering San Diego and Goodrich Professor of Engineering Innovation at Case Western Reserve University, you too may find it hard to succinctly describe your interests. Academic, researcher, entrepreneur, inventor, and innovator-Mehregany is a good example of the wide range of directions that an inquisitive mind may follow. He describes himself as "a sensor guy/' and sensors have been a consistent theme throughout his undertakings. Although his degrees are in electrical engineering, he's long been interested in materials and mechanical design. This combination of topics is ideal for sensors and underpinned Mehregany's MEMS work at Bell Labs while pursuing his Ph.D. at MIT in the late 1980s.
