Insights

 

With this Insights section we provide you with the latest update on the progression of the BioMedical Design Fellowship Programme. Insights are written by BioMedical Design Fellows on a weekly basis and from time to time by the BioMedical Design staff when we feel we have some important messages to convey to our audience.

My team counts three team members, all with different backgrounds and different ways of thinking, which I see as a big strength.

A vision very much in focus throughout the BioMedical Design Programme.
