    Continued exploration of relationship between clinical medicine and bioengineering through mentored research in hospital setting of Tufts New England Medical Center. What problems in doctor's offices, examining rooms, operating rooms can be addressed using bioengineering By talking to people around the hospital/medical school (physicians, nurses, operating room personnel) students put together information and design (preliminary) a device to approach the problem. Prerequisites Must be a student in EMD program. One half credit.
