“How might healthcare be delivered to everyone?” At the Beyond Boundaries Health track, @AronoffEliah and the Center for Health Design team launched “Lifesaver,” a universal essential health platform for anyone, just back from testing with the NASA/Seti Mars Analog in the Arctic circle; and “n.Gen,” a project with Hollywood artists and designers that challenges us to reimagine what we wear and carry everyday. #ucsd #lifesaver #ngen #howmightwe #healthinnovation @UCSanDiego @QI_UCSD @pascalleetweets @EmaSciate

A special thank-you to @UCSanDiego leadership and @jnd1er for their support Saturday of the @wdc2024 convocation ceremony and Design Lab 10th anniversary celebration. What better way to celebrate a decade of design impact than coming full circle to the place the WDC bid began, right here on the UC San Diego campus? We are honored to live and work for and with our UC San Diego and cross-border communities.

The Design Lab was proud to co-host the World Design Convocation Ceremony at Epstein Family Amphitheater last weekend. While we said goodbye to the San Diego Tijuana designation, we welcomed the future of our cross-border collaboration, and proudly passed the torch to Frankfurt RheinMain, Germany. Design Lab Director and WDC San Diego Tijuana board chair Mai Nguyen was among those to speak at the celebration.
