Bionics SEQ is a newly formed initiative aiming to create new and improved interfaces, linking clinicians, scientists, industry and investors to fast track the development of globally recognized bionics solutions. Hear about the impact that cross disciplinary collaborations and scientific research can have on improved clinical outcomes in the area of human bionics. Careers in STEM can lead to exciting and unexpected collaborations which have the potential to find bionic solutions for the “big picture” issues for Mankind.
Dr Dimity Dornan AO – as founder of Bionics SEQ, through story-telling, Dimity can set the scene for some impressive development in the area of human bionics having huge positive impact on patient’s lives.
