On the morning of August 23, 2022, the School of Biomedical Engineering of International University (IU-VNU) and the sponsor, Merck Vietnam Co., Ltd. held the Final Round of BME Innovation Competition 2022.The result is that, “The Application of nanoparticles manufactured from Polycatechol derivatives in the treatment of Ulcerative Colitis” by team LV won the first prize.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The competition lasted for more than 5 hours with many impressive presentations and excellent question responses. As a result, the LV team with the idea of “Application of nanoparticles manufactured from Polycatechol derivatives in the treatment of colon fibroids” won the final. In this project, a novel ROS-scavenging nanomolecular system, based on catechol (or 1,2-dihydroxylbenzene), has been successfully designed (Cat-NPs), with the potential to overcome almost any challenge to be a versatile antioxidant.<\/p>\n

One special thing about this year\u2019s contest is that the panel of judges decided to give all the remaining teams additional and consolation prizes to motivate and encourage their efforts over the past 4 months. Speaking at the award ceremony, Assoc. Dr. Vuong Binh Long \u2013 Vice Dean of School of Biomedical Engineering, Head of Panel of BME Innovation 2022 \u2013 shared: \u201cThrough this contest, I hope all of you will have more motivation to be creative, to conduct research and to create products that are really useful. With all teams winning prizes, no matter how big or small, I hope you have had meaningful experiences doing teamwork and participating in the competition, thereby improving your knowledge.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking at the opening ceremony, Assoc. Dr. Nguyen Thi Hiep – Dean of the School of Biomedical Engineering, IU – VNU – said: \u201cThis year, BME Innovation Competition has a success which is its extension to high school students as 2 teams from Le Hong Phong High School for the Gifted and Tran Dai Nghia High School for the Gifted have advanced to the final round. At the same time, I hope that the competition will bring research motivation to the students, especially in the context that Science and Technology is being somewhat eclipsed by Economics.”<\/p>\n

Assoc. Dr. Nguyen Thi Hiep – Dean of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, International University, Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City – said: \u201cThis year’s contest had a success as it was extended to high school students and attracted 2 students. Teams from Le Hong Phong High School for the Gifted and Tran Dai Nghia High School for the Gifted”

In addition, to strengthen the development of the annual BME Innovation contest and to create a place to help biomedical initiatives receive suggestions and support from highly qualified teachers, the School of Biomedical Engineering decides to establish the BME Innovation Club under the guidance of the Center for Innovation and Technology Transfer (CITT), International University. Dr. Tran Thi Ngoc Diep – Director of CITT – was committed to supporting the club with all its might to bring biomedical initiatives of students to domestic and foreign startup competitions. Furthermore, CITT also gives the club a pot of green plant with the meaningful message “If you want to give up, remember why you started”.<\/p>\n

BME Innovation is an annual competition organized by the School of Biomedical Engineering with the aim of selecting good ideas for research and solutions to apply Biomedical Engineering in health care, diagnosis and treatment for common or chronic diseases. With the theme “Medical solutions for smart cities”, this year’s contest attracted 17 teams and 1 individual from high schools and universities across the city with many interesting ideas. After 2 rounds of intense competition, 10 teams and 1 outstanding individual reached the final round.<\/p>\n

In the final round, each individual\/team had 7 minutes to present to the Panel of Judges their demo product. The judges commented on each presentation and asked questions to the teams. In addition, remaining individual\/teams were able to do Q&A session with the presenting team. The scores for their performances were calculated based on the average of the total scores that each judge gave each team\/individual. The final scores \u00a0whichranked from high to low were used to select the prizes of the contest. During the competition, teams\/individual were required to present clearly and ensure the quality of their presentation.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
