According to the BMES Official Website, the mission of BMES is to:
“promote a collaborative and inclusive community to advance human health through education, discovery, and translation; share a vision of health and wellness for all through engineering innovation and a steadfast commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
The Stony Brook student chapter of the Biomedical Engineering Society was established in 1997 with the initial intention to promote the biomedical engineering profession in both academia and industry and to be one of the most valuable resources to our members. We strive to provide a forum for social interaction and exchange of ideas between students both graduate and undergraduate and faculty in the biomedical engineering department. We seek to impact the community beyond our chapter especially as related to Science-Technology-Engineering-Math (STEM). As such, BMES provides chapter events in the fields of academia, professional development, social development, and community outreach.
