Students Addressing Global Health Challenges: Lessons Learned
Maria Oden, Ph.D., Department of Bioengineering, Rice University
September 25, 2014 6 pm (Food starting at 5:30 pm)
Blum Hall B100
Through 8 years of experience with the Beyond Traditional Borders program at Rice University, we have developed, evaluated and, in some cases, implemented medical technologies in 16 countries around the world. This talk will focus on the lessons learned as we have become more successful at taking technologies from the undergraduate and graduate labs to implementation and, in some cases, to commercial distribution. Examples such as a bubble CPAP system, dosing clip, hemoglobinometer, phototherapy system and others will be highlighted.
