Advances at the intersection of surgery and engineering are reshaping how we understand and treat disease. From next-generation devices, robotics, and bioengineering platforms, to AI-powered decision support and predictive modeling, these collaborations are unlocking new possibilities for improved surgical care and patient outcomes.
This Research on Tap will bring together Boston University surgeons and engineers with the shared goal of driving these translational discoveries. Join us to explore convergent research spanning wound-healing, trauma, cancer, critical care, medical devices, and more.
Boston University President Gilliam will provide opening remarks.

About Research on Tap
The Research on Tap series, sponsored by the BU Office of Research, brings together groups of BU researchers around important topics. At each event, 10-12 researchers present a maximum of four slides and deliver a four-minute “elevator pitch” of their work. Research on Tap events are open to faculty, staff, postdocs, and graduate students. Each presentation is followed by refreshments and lively discussion with colleagues and potential collaborators.
