Young Researchers Academy
The aim of the Young Researchers Academy (YRA) is to build a scientific community amongst young MedTech researchers, namely bachelor, master, and doctoral students of all types of universities (Universities & Universities of Applied Sciences) in NRW.
Thus the YRA offers a symposium - YRA MedTech Symposium - (free of charge) to provide an open platform for bachelor, master, and doctoral students to present either their research or their final thesis in the realm of (bio-)medical engineering or in related fields such as e.g. (non-exhaustive):
- Biomechanics, Implants, Biofluidmechanics, Microfluidics, ...
- Bioinformatics, Telemedicine, AAL, Hospital Engineering, ...
- Bioelectromagnetics, Bioelectronics, Biophysics, Medical Physics, ...
- Medical Imaging, Biosensors, Lab-on-a-Chip...
- Numerical Modeling, HPC, Multi-Scale Approaches, ...
- Implementing of Medical Device Regulations
