BME-IDEA Europe 26th & 27th June 2019:
“Toolboxes for need-led innovation”
Oxford Biodesign at The University of Oxford is proud to announce it is hosting the European Biomedical Engineering–Innovation, Design and Entrepreneurship Alliance (BME–IDEA) meeting on 26th & 27th June 2019 in Oxford. Please put the date in your diary.
This year the focus will be on toolboxes for innovation, design, technology transfer and entrepreneurship within Biomedical Engineering Education. There is the opportunity to present tools that have been developed to support need-led innovation education.
Alumni will also have the opportunity to exchange knowledge with participants of other programs and to learn from each other.
Call for Abstracts
We are pleased to confirm an opportunity to present tools that have been developed or are in development to support need-led innovation education. We invite people to submit an abstract to either deliver a presentation, lighting presentations with a poster, demonstration of tool or to run a workshop session.
For further information or to register your interest please contact Victoria Green.
The BME-IDEA meetings started in 2003 at the University of Stanford to:
- Review the experiences of different university programs involved in innovation, design, technology transfer and entrepreneurship in biomedical engineering education
- Discuss objectives, challenges, and opportunities for further development of these programs – including industry and academic perspectives
- Explore the potential for sharing resources and creating community-wide tools (e.g., web portal, national design contest, etc.)
This event is made possible thanks to the support from EIT Health and EIT Health Alumni.
