On Saturday March 25th, 2017, students from E^3 spent a day with volunteer BME graduate students learning about the following science\/engineering areas that can be found in BME: ECG &#038; Heart Physiology, Microscopy &#038; Biophotonics, and Circuits &#038; The Principles of Conductance.  These topics consisted of demos and hands-on activities for the E^3 students to explore and learn about the basics and practical knowledge\/utility of those topics.  Lab tours were given following the demos\/activities, and the day finished off with tutoring.  Both the E^3 students and the volunteers enjoyed an awesome day of science and engineering exploration!  We look forward to doing this again next year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>March 25th, 2017 In collaboration with Jasmine Kwasa&#8217;s E^3 mentoring program, GSC Outreach hosted local female high school students for a day of exploring topics in BME.
