In addition, he has researched, authored articles, and written book chapters in the areas of tissue engineering and material science and engineering with the University of Connecticut. He hopes to contribute to the robust research environment at Emory in whatever ways he can. He is a member of the NMA, AAPMR, and AANEM.
Originally, from Syracuse, New York, Dr. Harmon is a die-hard Syracuse Orangeman, and is also hoping to see a New York Yankees vs. Atlanta Braves World Series in 2023. Dr. Harmon resides in Alpharetta, with his wife, Holly, their son, Miles, and their two dogs, Maya and Finn.
