We do more than research. Last Sunday, some of us participated in the SWE X BMES Best Buds 5k. This is Thea, Kaitlyn, and Dr. Reck, along with other current UI Department of Bioengineering students, after the race.

At FIE2024 we shared an assignment modification to the temperature sensor lab in BIOE415. The goal was for students to be able to critically think about the difference between doing analysis by hand, with purpose built and validated software, & with a tool based on a large language model. This video shows some of the slides from our presentation today.

Thank you to everyone who attended our lunch and learn workshop today. We had great conversations about applying engineering design to lab course development. I enjoyed sharing our work over the past year to make BIOE415 more inclusive and valuable for the students. Thank you to the Kern Family Foundation and AE3 for supporting this event!
