Students Design Prototypes to Tackle Dementia Related Challenges

Tony Chang, a third-year biology major at Stanford, said his university offered educational power through access to high-end resources and experts. Chang is a project leader of Stanford Health Innovations in Future Technologies and a logistical support staff member for JAIM. During their workshop at Stanford on Aug. 19, the JAIM students visited the prestigious Stanford Biodesign center and listened to faculty before participating in medical design workshops, Chang added. The next day, the group flew to UCLA for further education on innovation and entrepreneurship, Mori said. “It was such an interesting experience to be able to collaborate and talk with them (the other students) and see their perspectives coming into the program,” said Reyna Ho, a second-year physiological science student.
