Yet, as they have done for four years, Johns Hopkins biomedical engineering master\u2019s students enrolled in the yearlong David E. Swirnow Master\u2019s Program in Bioengineering Innovation and Design last summer left this medical technology epicenter to travel to the far corners of the globe to walk in the shoes of those who face a much more difficult path to quality treatment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/news\/2014\/08\/06\/students-blog-india-nepal-indonesia\/#.VJQ0LsAAA\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-3494 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/CBID-Box.png\" alt=\"CBID Box\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/CBID-Box.png 150w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/CBID-Box-125x125.png 125w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/CBID-Box-75x75.png 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>Every year, students in the Center for Bioengineering Innovation and Design (CBID) program are charged with designing medical devices to solve clinical problems in both Johns Hopkins Hospital and some of the world\u2019s lowest resource areas. In order to do this effectively, they must understand the environs, resources, and needs of some of the world\u2019s most deprived people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn rural Nepal, women in labor often have to deal with long treks to reach accessible roads, bumpy car rides in shared taxis, and the threat of landslides,\u201d writes Allie Sibole, who had a similar journey herself outside Pokhara, Nepal\u2019s second largest city. \u201cThere had been so much rain \u2026 much of the path was submerged. We waded through ankle-deep water and then climbed a hill to finally reach the health post.\u201d Experiences like these have become the hallmark of the program, which has attracted attention from academics, activists, and corporate philanthropists for its innovative approach to training the next generation of global medical problem solvers. Working in teams\u2014and supported by organizations such as USAID, the Johns Hopkins\u2013affiliated Jhpiego, Laerdal Global Health, Medtronic, Boston Scientific, and nonprofits such as the GE and Gates foundations\u2014students spend two months in clinical rotations at Johns Hopkins Hospital before packing suitcases for monthlong trips to Europe, Southeast Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa.<\/p>\n<p>When they return, they spend the remainder of their MSE year working with Johns Hopkins science and clinical faculty, plus a network of external mentors, to design and develop viable products for U.S. and global markets. To date, 79 students have graduated from the MSE program; 20 students are enrolled this year. The students have worked on 32 novel designs, with 18 aimed at the U.S. market and 14 developed for low-resource settings. This year, students are working on eight projects. In all, they have filed 66 invention disclosures with the Johns Hopkins Office of Technology Transfer, and their projects are at varying stages of development.<\/p>\n<p>Last summer, CBID Director Youseph Yazdi traveled with students to several locations in India, including a village on a mangrove island in the Sunderbans region\u2014complete with crocodiles and an occasional Bengal tiger. In addition to making clinical observations, a team was testing Hemoglobe, a potentially lifesaving mobile device to screen for anemia, which was developed at CBID.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven in that remote village, the poverty wasn\u2019t material or spiritual. It was a poverty<br \/>\nof information about health and proper care,\u201d says Yazdi, an electrical engineer with an MBA, who left Johnson &amp; Johnson in 2009 to head the CBID program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat results in people wasting time and money on useless or even harmful treatment. That is unacceptable when an ocean of information is as near as the mobile device in your pocket. We aim to expose students to this reality, then give them the resources and mentorship to create real solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Know your User:\u00a0CBID students share their lessons from the field<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/WSE_winter15_CBID_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3440 size-medium alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/WSE_winter15_CBID_1-300x283.jpg\" alt=\"WSE_winter15_CBID_1\" width=\"300\" height=\"283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/WSE_winter15_CBID_1-300x283.jpg 300w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/WSE_winter15_CBID_1.jpg 991w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Recognize the workload of health care workers\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cSurgeons are forced to be as time-efficient as possible in order to accommodate the volume of patients who arrive to seek care.
