Capstone Symposium 2021, May 7, 2021 (Day 2)
Due to the continued impact of the coronavirus pandemic, the 2021 BME Capstone Symposium will be offered over two days on ZOOM. Each group's presentation is 12 minutes with a 3-minute Q&A period. Q&A will be moderated through ZOOM's online chat tool. You are welcome to toggle between sessions (i.e. drop in and out) at your own pace. However, we recommend that you attend one of the 6:00 - 6:15p "Introductions and Procedures" sessions, so that you are well calibrated to the format.
