STEM Café: Biomedical Technology: Engineering Better Health

With technology such as wearable devices and robotic surgeries, biomedical engineering is advancing quickly and has the potential to improve human health. Join NIU Assistant Professor Mohammad Moghimi to learn about current research and novel technologies in biomedical engineering. He’ll discuss new technologies his lab is developing including wearable sensors that monitor the progression of cardiovascular disease. He’ll also talk about the groundbreaking pediatric hearing aids he designed that attach like a Band-Aid behind an infant’s ear to conduct sound to the cochlea.
