The Hacking Medicine Team
Dear Beth,
I'm a graduate student in HST and I'm organizing a novel student-led medical conference called Hacking Medicine (http://hackingmedicine.mit.edu/). I believe many students in Eng Systems would be interested, and I'm hoping that you can forward information about the conference to your student lists.
Hacking Medicine's aim is to catalyze the formation of healthcare solutions, implementable today. At our inaugural conference we will select 100 passionate thinkers and doers to form a truly multidisciplinary group. Teams composed of engineers, scientists, physicians, and entrepreneurs will build on each other's skill sets to envision concrete solutions they can carry forward after the conference.
The ultimate aim of this conference is to enable people to enact real change in healthcare now; to inspire medical entrepreneurship; and to form strong teams that can truly work well after the conference.
I believe students in Eng Systems who have interest in medical applications have incredibly valuable skill sets and visions, and I would love to see them engage in our conference.
Can you please forward the below email to your student lists?
Thanks very much, and please let me know if you have any questions.
