Surgery Zone Report – March 2016

READ THE FULL REPORT

The Surgery Zone was a themed zone funded by the Wellcome Trust. Within the zone, Matt is a Systems Administrator in a cardiothoracic hospital, Dominic is head of the Surgical and Prosthetic Design team at Cardiff Metropolitan University, Monica who designs medical devices for the heart, Maedeh is a Postdoctoral Research Associate who designs devices for patients with hand abnormalities and Matthew designs tools for brain surgery.

The zone had a higher than average amount of questions and votes compared to the other March zones, and live chats were busy and energetic. Much of the topics discussed were career focussed, with some more theme- specific questions being asked as the event went on and students had the chance to talk to the engineers through the live chats, which were often busy and fast paced.
