Since 2004, NCIIA has spurred innovation in biomedical engineering by organizing (with our sponsors) the BMEidea competition for university student teams.

This fall, NCIIA will launch a new BME competition for undergraduate student teams. BMEStart recognizes undergraduate excellence in biomedical innovation. Student teams will be invited to demonstrate innovations that address a medical clinical need with a clearly defined solution that can be taken to application. $10,000 is at stake for the winning team!

Applications will be accepted from November 1, 2009. Check back for updates!
