Earlier this year, students from Queen’s Biomedical Innovation Team (QBiT) and Queen’s BioMechatronics Team (QBMeT) at Queen’s University took part in a design sprint with Neil Squire’s Makers Making Change program.
The Makers Making Change Research and Development team is currently working on a number of projects this summer. Here’s a rundown of the projects in the works, and some opportunities for you to get involved.
