Bringing An Engineer’s Perspective to Clinical Medicine

We all talk about the importance of multidisciplinary teams for tackling our greatest health challenges. Yet, I have found that as someone rooted in a technical discipline (mechanical engineering), this is often defined as bringing together an electrical engineer with say a physicist and chemist. For this talk, I will share with you my journey as an engineer in a clinically driven environment. As part of this talk, I will share vignettes of my research, spanning from the development of microfluidic technologies to isolate the rarest particles in blood, to seeking ways to extend the life of human organs. I will highlight voices that I now see as critical to my own research, including ethicists, regulatory specialists and patients themselves, while sharing areas of opportunity for early career scientists.

We are looking forward to seeing you!
