During the early part of the day, the speakers addressed the audience. During the afternoon, undergraduate students in the BME department showcased their research and work in poster format. This poster session was open to the general public – so physicians, BME faculty and grad students were all part of the audience. There was a slight overlap between the undergrad poster session and graduate Shark Tank event. Overall, the entire day of events had lasted approximately 7 hours.
