Students from across Johns Hopkins University gathered on April 28 for Johns Hopkins Design Day 2026, a university-wide celebration of creativity, collaboration, and innovation. The annual event brought together student teams from a wide range of disciplines to present projects focused on solving real-world challenges through engineering and design.

Representing the Johns Hopkins Center for Bioengineering Innovation and Design, the CBID Master of Science in Engineering Class of 2026 took the stage to deliver rapid-fire project pitches highlighting the work they have developed over the past academic year.

Each team presented solutions rooted in real clinical and healthcare challenges. Projects spanned areas including global health, advanced health technologies, and digital health innovation. Through concise presentations, students demonstrated the iterative design process behind their projects — from early clinical need identification and stakeholder engagement to prototyping, testing, and solution refinement.

The event provided an opportunity for students to share their work with peers, faculty, clinicians, and members of the broader Johns Hopkins design community. It also highlighted the interdisciplinary nature of CBID, where engineering, medicine, entrepreneurship, and human-centered design intersect to create impactful healthcare solutions.

Among a campus-wide showcase of innovative ideas, CBID teams stood out for their focus on translating engineering into meaningful clinical impact. The projects presented at Johns Hopkins Design Day 2026 reflected CBID’s mission of designing with purpose and developing technologies that address unmet healthcare needs.
