Latest Breakthroughs in Biomedical Engineering Research


During this seminar series, each week a different DBE group will host an expert in their respective field of research to give a 45-minute presentation followed by a 15-minute Q&A. The talks are followed by a networking event in a relaxed atmosphere. Seminar participants will gain a transversal overview of the research conducted at the DBE and also have the opportunity to chat directly with national or international experts and meet fellow researchers.
