Micromachining Workshop in Biodesign BME841
Thanks to Jacob Reynolds, Dhruv Singh and Vimbai Chado for help with the Micromachining Workshop we host for the Biodesign BME841 students. We cover the basics of computer animated design, computer aided manufacturing and computerized numerical control milling (CAD,CAM & CNC) to create a fun part. Go GREEN!
Lab fun
We wrapped up a few student rotations (Parker and Congying) and celebrated a great 2023 by going bowling.

Congying’s rotation creation!
Congying is just wrapping up her rotation in the lab and generated a beautiful series of dose:response experiments, which she quantified using confocal high-content imaging. She also found some time to use our makerspace and worked with Jacob to create some fun Mahjong art.
