Arizona State University is on a mission to drive innovations that will help people lead healthier lives and empower health care professionals to develop novel new health solutions. As part of that goal, the School of Biological and Health Systems Engineering, part of the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at ASU — with support from the Flinn Foundation — is announcing the Mayo Clinic and Arizona State University Alliance for Health Care Biomedical Engineering Program.
The program aims to enhance education and training opportunities for ASU and Mayo Clinic students, advancing pathways for medical entrepreneurship, clinical immersion and community embeddedness.
Through this new opportunity, faculty members and students gain a new pathway to leverage technological innovations to develop patient care solutions.
The initiative exemplifies the Fulton Schools’ to accelerating and strengthening the clinical impact of biomedical research.
“This program highlights the transformative impact biomedical engineering can have on improving overall health outcomes for Arizonans and beyond,” says Kyle Squires, ASU’s senior vice provost for engineering, computing and technology and dean of the Fulton Schools. “Through this collaboration, we look forward to ASU and Mayo Clinic faculty and students laying the groundwork for the future of medicine through technological innovations.”
Researchers, clinicians and professors at both institutions are committed to creating medically focused research and learning opportunities for the next generation of biomedical engineers.
