Think about your morning routine for a minute.
Contact lenses? That's biomedical engineering.
Smartwatch? Biomedical engineering.
CPAP machine last night? Biomedical engineering.
Inhaler for medication? Biomedical engineering.
Pacemaker or insulin pump? Biomedical engineering.
Before you finish your morning coffee, this field has touched your life multiple times. And people didn't think twice about it.
If we lived in a world without biomedical engineering, these devices wouldn't exist.
But they didn't appear by magic. Every single one came from years of research and development β made possible by sustained funding.
BMES is collecting stories that show what biomedical engineering makes possible and what's at stake when funding decisions are made.
