The University of Manitoba’s Biomedical Engineering Design Team, BMED, exists to bring together students at the University of Manitoba interested in the biomedical field; specifically, to source and propagate knowledge pertaining to the biomedical field, and to challenge students with design projects and competitions associated with biomedical engineering. This year’s projects were; Wheelchair Transfer, Wheelchair Hand-warmer and an EEG Muscle-to-Music Rehabilitation. Each project chosen had a team of students that worked hard together to design, fabricate and test their device. As a group UMBMES also aims to provide its members with biomedical oriented events, research, and tours as well as a list of current biomedical course options, industry in Manitoba, labs both on and off campus and professors who are currently doing biomedical research at the University. Our team is hoping to help increase the interest in the field and improve the biomedical engineering experience for students at the University of Manitoba.
