OUR PROJECTS
BIOENGINEERING ACTIVITIES FAIR
BioEmpower worked in collaboration with BMES and the Assistant Director of Pre-College Outreach & Recruitment, Priscilla Yoon to host the first annual Bioengineering Activities Fair. Students from all over the greater Seattle area participated in modules designed to show them the breadth of the bioengineering field. They learned about ultrasound, nanoparticles, neural engineering, and more! Check out our gallery for pictures of the event!
