4/5 Students Explore Biomedical Engineering Field with UW Madison University Students
UW Madison students brought hands-on learning to NCS 4th and 5th grade students in the field of Biomedical Engineering.
In this first picture, students experiment with making a biomaterial.
Next, students work with LED lights and a circuit board to mimic the movement of blood through the body.
Sam Bass uses a pulse-oximeter to measure his heart rate and the amount of oxygen in his blood. Sam investigated how those numbers change as he exercises and rests.
