Bioengineering seniors are creating simulators that physicians will eventually use to perfect their skills.
The finished mannequin-like objects will allow family practice and emergency medicine physicians to practice a procedure to diagnose gout and will allow surgeons to simulate repairing multi-level skin lacerations. But the whole process gives students an idea of what working in industry is like.

A group of bioengineering seniors are winners of the University of Illinois I2P Idea to Product Competition, which examines ideas at their earliest stage.
Jon Yu, Brittany Weida, Ruth Osbrink and Meagan Musselman presented their idea at the competition in late October. They are designing a knee brace that will assist patients in certain movements, and they will present their concept at the regional competition in Saint Louis in February.
