Session Description

In this interactive session, six authors will each pitch their work in progress as a five-minute, two-slide “postcard” overview. Attendees will then have the opportunity to interact with any author(s) they wish, to engage in dynamic, small-group discussion at the authors' stations around the room. The Biomedical Engineering Division's Best Work in Progress Award will be selected from these six presentations based on evaluators' ratings of Relevance to BME Education, Innovation, Technical Merit, Demonstrated Outcomes, and Presentation Quality.

Moderated by

1. Dr. Leann Dourte Segan and Sabia Zehra Abidi
