Celebration of Minorities in BME Luncheon

We encourage you to register for the Celebration of Minorities in BME luncheon. This is the third year of this event, sponsored by the BMES Diversity Committee, to create a community and network within the Society that fosters support and professional development of minorities in BMES at all levels.

Everyone is invited to attend, as diversity only increases when all groups play a part.  This luncheon complements the Diversity Award lecture to be delivered on Saturday and the Women in BMES Networking Luncheon on Friday.

Looking to recruit underrepresented biomedical engineers for Faculty, Graduate program, Training grant, or Research laboratory?  Looking to be recruited?

We will provide the opportunity for all registered luncheon attendees to display posters, handouts, or brochures in an information distribution area inside of the luncheon ballroom for recruiting and networking opportunities. 

 


Women in BMES Luncheon

Luncheon work-shop with networking opportunities

Networking events for women in BMES create a community within the Society that fosters support and professional development, while offering opportunities to nourish old ties and forge new relationships. Women in BMES activities have made a visible impact at the meeting, creating a forum for exchange across disciplines, between industry and academia, and between senior leaders in the field and junior faculty, trainees, and students.
