Connect with public health researchers and global health engineers through the Global Health Ideas Repository
The Global Health Ideas Repository (GHIR) is a forum that connects educators, innovators, & students from various disciplines interested in tackling global health challenges from an engineering perspective.
Have you spent your summer working in a developing country and have firsthand experience with the pressing global health challenges of today? Share those challenges with others who are passionate about applying engineering solutions to current global health problems. Through this site, managed by the biomedical engineering department at Boston University, you can submit a challenge, propose a solution, or collaborate on a project!
GHIR is currently looking for submissions of global health challenges from those who have been working in the field. Since so many students are returning from practicums abroad, now is a great time to provide GHIR with a better understanding of the health challenges that you’ve experienced on the ground.
