Presentation Transcript


  1. The Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society of the IEEE advances the application of engineering sciences and technology to medicine and biology, promotes the profession, and provides global leadership for the benefit of its members and humanity by disseminating knowledge, setting standards, fostering professional development, and recognizing excellence. Mission

  2. World’s largest bioengineering society ~8,400 members

  3. IEEE EMBS is strong in its foundation and is the leading bioengineering society with a wide array of quality products and services for the benefit of its members and humanity EMBS fosters inter-disciplinary activities within and without IEEE creating opportunities to collaborate on projects (journals, conferences, etc) spanning engineering and the life sciences community Many volunteer opportunities are available. Good volunteers & leaders needed to make IEEE EMBS stronger By working together, we can transform and revolutionize future medicine and healthcare
