ABOUT

Time is of the essence when it comes to making an impact on our current public health crises and Sling Health gives students an excellent opportunity to support the healthcare community. This program is designed to rapidly bringing forth new technologies and ideas and unite students across the nation among an even broader community of like-minded peers.

Students from around the country can participate virtually amongst multidisciplinary teams as they push through the biomedical design process. Mentors from throughout the Sling Health network will be available to provide feedback to projects. In partnership with the AMA, teams will be able to utilize the Clinical Problem Database to discuss and source problems and the Physician Innovation Network to engage with physicians, entrepreneurs, patients and other key stakeholders.
