A Johns Hopkins student team within CBID that wants to help people breathe easier has been selected as a finalist in the 2017 Collegiate Inventors Competition, organizers of the event announced Tuesday. The students devised a simple, discreet device to open obstructed nostrils, a common problem that can cause snoring and other sleep disruptions, as […]
Undergraduate design teams in the Center for Bioengineering Innovation and Design won three awards at the NIH DEBUT Challenge. This design competition recognizes undergraduate excellence in biomedical design and innovation. Entries were judged on significance of the problem being addresses, impact on potential users and clinical care, innovative design, and working prototype. More about the Johns Hopkins winning […]
Every summer, Johns Hopkins Biomedical Engineering students work side-by-side with primary care providers in some of the world’s most underserved communities. They assess the needs and then design, prototype, and commercialize the next generation of medical devices that are transforming global health care. Johns Hopkins’ Center for Bioengineering Innovation and Design (CBID) forms teams of […]
– Catherine Gara During his first year of medical school at the Johns Hopkins University, David Gullotti attended a retreat for Christian health care providers. There he mentioned that he enjoyed using his physics and engineering background to sketch device ideas that could improve patient outcomes, but he struggled to see a path forward, a […]
A 23,000-square-foot innovation hub, located at 1812 Ashland Ave. on the Johns Hopkins East Baltimore campus, is the latest addition to a rapidly growing and increasingly vibrant startup scene that is helping to bring life-changing products, services, and technologies to market—and to revitalize Baltimore’s economy.
