The Biomedical Engineering Association of MSU (BEAM) had a unique opportunity to attend the Biomedical Engineering Society’s 50th Anniversary 2018 Annual Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia. The conference consists of thousands of scientists in the field of biomedical engineering from undergraduate and graduate students to professionals who work in industry and academia.
BEAM was able to take 15 of its undergraduate students and 7 student researchers to experience all this conference had to offer. With over 80 graduate schools from around the country and international attending the conference, our students had an amazing opportunity to network and to have face-to-face interactions with admissions and potential research professors.
Along with graduate schools, there were also over 1,800 posters to view and numerous research presentations in a variety of areas to attend throughout the conference.
