New Frontiers in Biomedical Engineering conference, Fall 2013

Dr. Krystyna Gielo-Perczak organized, for the third time, a New Frontiers in Biomedical Engineering conference for undergraduate students. The conference took place during her Introduction to Biomedical Engineering class, which has an enrollment of over 85 sophomores and juniors. Dr. Gielo-Perczak reports that she mentored the students to help them refine their projects, which culminated in formal presentation by 24 teams describing their concepts for new medical devices or methods.  She also encouraged her student to participate in a Neuroscience in Storrs conference as means to initiate a multidisciplinary dialogue across the UConn campus.
