🎉 This week we've got lots of new PhDs & postdocs @uclmecheng starting this academic year 2022/2023! Welcome!!
We thought we'd help get you all started by introducing each of us on the current MERS committee (& a few other cool people you should know)...

One of our IHE mpact Fellows, Katherine Wang, is featured in @uclnews.
Spurred by her late uncle's experience with lymphoedema, Katherine is developing a wearable device that can alleviate pain from the condition.
