MEDevice: A Hackathon for Medical Device Innovation
by Vincent Khau
Have you ever had an idea for a fantastic medical device but are unsure of how to physically realise it? Got the technical skills and want to take a look at what it’s like to hack together with like-minded people in medical innovation? Well here’s your chance to meet new people and come up with great ideas whilst learning new skills and having fun!
Research Platforms Services will be holding an exciting hackathon ‘MEDevice’ for people interested in medical device innovation. Over the course of four weeks, postgraduate students from the medical, and engineering disciplines at the University of Melbourne will have the opportunity to network and form teams, learn computer-aided design skills to 3D print and rapidly prototype their ideas, culminating in a business pitch to a panel of experts and judges for their chance to win awesome prizes!
