CBB Workshop Series
July 3 Workshop: An Introduction to Bioinformatics (5:30 - 6:30 pm)
Go on a virtual scavenger hunt where you will have to find and identify the correct nucleotides to break the code. Find and uncover the ‘clues’ using databases like Gene Bank, and programming in Python to uncover the correct gene sequence and break the code.
CBB Workshop Series
July 10 Workshop: CAD and 3D Printing for Biomedical Design (4:30pm - 6:30 pm)
Use the SolidWorks Computer Aided Design Software to learn how to quickly and effectively design three-dimensional models. You will learn the main CAD techniques through a guided instructional session, followed by a chance to work with mentors on designing and 3D printing a biological model of your choice.
CBB Workshop Series
July 17 Workshop: Microbiology in Life (5:30pm to 7:30pm)
Lab skills are essential for any wet-lab research. In this workshop, you will learn about fundamental microbiological wet lab techniques as you are guided through various lab activities including Streak Plating and Microscopy. You will also hear from Dr. Trevor Charles, an expert in microbiology research, about his exciting work in the field.
CBB Workshop Series
July 24 Workshop: Applications of Biosensors and Biosignals (5:30pm - 8:30pm)
Get access to some of the latest biosensor and bio-signal hardware used in both, research and industry. Whether you are competing with a friend to control your brain waves through various brain-computer interfaces, trying on prosthetics developed by UW Students, or working through a phonomyographic circuit lab, we’ve got something for everyone
WIN-CBB Industry Seminar Series: Civil Engineering to Cell Therapy
Civil Engineering to Cell Therapy: Applying Engineering Principles to Medical Product Development
The first wave of successful implantable medical devices was successfully realized when physicians and engineers joined together to form cross-functional teams sharing medical, surgical, strength of materials, tribology and manufacturing methods.

CBB-GI Seminar: John Muñoz - Physiological sensing in games and VR
POSTPONED UNTIL THE FALL TERM
Overall, physiological sensing has been extensively used as a passive technique to record human responses while interacting with videogames and VR applications. However, those signals have been also utilized either to extend the communication pathways for interfacing the nervous system with the virtual environments or to augment the interaction by means of modulating game variables in response to any detected human state (biocybernetic adaptation).
