<Title>New Biomedical Engineering Society - Student Chapter</Title>
<Tagline>Grad students, faculty, and staff invited to join</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span>Announcement: Establishment 
    of a new professional chapter on campus,</span><span> Biomedical Engineering 
    Society (BMES). Biomedical engineering is an unique field in that it is 
    extremely multidisciplinary and collaborative; this field recruits 
    students and professionals from departments such as ChemE, CompE, MechE,
     Biology, Chemistry and Information Systems to cooperate on fields such 
    as tissue, genetic, and pharmaceutical engineering, biotechnology, 
    biomedical devices and instrumentation, medical robotics, and 
    prosthetics.</span><br><br>
    
    
    <span>Our
     chapter’s main focus is to educate members regarding the variety of BME
     related industries in the area by having frequent <strong>guest speakers and 
    site visits</strong> from industries such as Osiris-stem cell therapy, 
    MedImmune-biopharmaceutical, UMBC incubator, GE Heathcare, etc. Besides 
    educating members, these speaker and visitation events are also used to 
    facilitate <strong>students-professional networking</strong> and exposure to the array of
    <strong> job opportunities</strong> in BME related industries. Also, members will have 
    the opportunity to learn about discoveries and innovations in the BME 
    field through facilitated discussions each meeting. In addition, our 
    chapter is planning on having engineering faculty and student social 
    events, peer mentoring, and outreach and volunteer events.</span><br><br>
    
    
    <span>Both
     undergraduate and graduate students of UMBC are welcome. Since we are a
     newly found organization and therefore very member-focused, we strongly
     encourage our members to suggest site visits and events they would like
     to engage in. Our first meeting is <strong>Wednesday October 5th at noon in ITE229</strong> with subsequent meetings on every other Wednesday. We’ll talk about 
    recent exciting innovations in the BME field, future planned events, 
    visits and speakers, and take suggestions on other events and site 
    visits we can offer.</span><br><br>
    
    
    <span>Please
     email our secretary<em><strong> Phillip Kang (<a href="mailto:pkang1@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">pkang1@umbc.edu</a>)</strong></em> if you’re interested
     in joining the club or to be enrolled in our email list. Please mark 
    your calendars for Wednesday Oct 5th!<br><br>Sent by, </span><span><br>Jennie B. Leach</span><br><span>Associate Professor<br>
