BME Design Day 2025

The Department of Biomedical Engineering has set the standard in biomedical design since introducing its landmark undergraduate Design Team program more than 25 years ago. With the addition of its renowned master’s design program more than 15 years ago, offered through the department’s Center for Bioengineering Innovation and Design, biomedical engineering students of all levels are engineering the future of medicine by developing new health care technologies. This year, students are designing AI-enabled methods for disease diagnosis and treatment in rural communities, developing real-time navigation and guidance systems for surgical simulations, creating wearable devices to treat nystagmus, developing a catheter to minimize ischemic damage in subarachnoid hemorrhage patients, applying computational methods to predict risk of hospitalization following kidney injury, and more.
