Poster Presentation

Today the Design Project Poster Session took place. We brought our poster panels to recitation, and mounted our poster on the board. Then we (nervously) proceeded to give our five minute presentation, talking about our device, its features and the design process we followed to reach our final result. We each took turns and presented the slides that we each knew most about.

It was hard to try to touch on every subject and choose which were the most important features, but we decided to introduce only what we thought was most relevant to the problem we were trying to address.We really enjoyed watching all the other teams present, and seeing the plethora of such different and great ideas that our fellow students had come up with. Frankly, we were quite surprised at the originality of all the designs, and at how we had thought of some similar ideas but applied them to such different machines.

After all the presentations were finished, we placed the posters around the room to look around and see what our teammates had done, as well as to allow the TA a closer look. We were very impressed by the projects our recitation put forward. We got to see the posters in detail, and finally the winning BE100 Design Team for our section was announced.

Unfortunately, it wasn't ours, but we still feel really proud of the work we did, and the amazing device we accomplished to design. This picture shows David, Connie and Julie presenting (the RxH was awesome by the way). Lastly, we wanted to say congratulations to the winning team, "Team Turtle" (Michael, Sofia and Vivek)! Your docking idea was great, and we look forward to see it hanging in front of the BE department (OG).

We have come such a long way from the beginning of the year, when most of us didn't even begin to understand what Bioengineering was. Although we had to work hard and learn new skills, we are now on our way to becoming some of the best Bioengineers out there. The experiences and people in this class have made our experience at Penn unforgettable. We wish you all good luck, and hopefully we'll see in class next semester... :)

Love, Quacks and Happy Holidays,
