BIOMED Research Symposium: Medical Challenges, Engineering Solutions
Fri, Sep 03, 2010 @ 11:00 AM - 01:30 PM
Viterbi School of Engineering Student Organizations
Student Activity
BIOMED: Medical Challenges, Engineering Solutions, taking place on September 3rd from 11:20-1:30pm (check in at 11am) is a beginning-of-the-year luncheon meant to introduce incoming and current students of any background to medical issues that face our world today. This event is focused primarily on research and becoming familiar with the current range of work being pursued. If you are looking for a research position, this is the perfect way to interact with several professors all in one setting. We will have an introductory speaker from the Keck School of Medicine, Dr. Richard Roberts discuss the major issue of personalized medicine, and have follow up speakers from Viterbi and Keck who will discuss how such issues are being solved right here in the studentsâ âown backyardâ of USC. As such, this event should also prove to be especially useful to incoming students who have an interest in medicine or research but want to know more about what it means to be put into application. Continuing students will benefit as well, as we will be inviting numerous professors to the luncheon who are solving other issues of medicine and health so that students may interact and network with them for research positions, or simply social purposes in a relaxed environment over a sit-down lunch. Students will also have the opportunity to network with peers who share their same interest across varying disciplines.
So join in, get your feet wet, and kick off the year with BIOMED!
