DENTON, Texas – New flood maps have been finalized and will become effective on June 10, 2026, for Tulsa County, Oklahoma. During the next six months, a FEMA compliance specialist will work with the community to update each floodplain ordinance and adopt these new flood maps.

Residents are encouraged to examine the maps to determine if they are in a low-to-moderate or high-risk flood zone. The current and future Flood Insurance Rate Map can be viewed on FEMA’s Flood Map Changes Viewer at https://msc.fema.gov/fmcv.

By understanding flood risks, individuals can decide which insurance option is best for their situation. Community leaders can use these maps to make informed decisions about building standards and development that will make the community more resilient and lessen the impacts of a flooding event.

Anyone without flood insurance risks uninsured losses to their home, personal property and business. Flood insurance is available either through a private policy or through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) for those in communities who participate in the NFIP. Residents with federally backed mortgages must have flood insurance if their structures are in the Special Flood Hazard Area.

Contact your local floodplain administrator (FPA) to review the new flood maps and learn more about your risk of flooding. A FEMA Map Specialist can help identify your community FPA and answer questions about the maps as well. Contact

The Department of Biomedical Engineering is looking for a Staff Associate III.  This position is available in the Laboratory for Stem Cells and Tissue Engineering by Dr. Gordana Vunjak-Novakovic.

We are looking for a highly motivated Research Engineer skilled in computational modeling and basic laboratory techniques to join our dynamic laboratory team. We are working on multiple tissue engineering projects for improving human health. Please see our website for more information: gvnlab.bme.columbia.edu

We expect the Staff Associate III to lead the development and application of advanced computational models to simulate, predict, and optimize novel micro-bioreactors and cell culture protocols. This role will focus on creating sophisticated “digital twins” of our tissue engineering systems by integrating COMSOL multiphysics simulations with machine learning models derived from experimental data.
