"Brainstorm 2018"- The Premier Biomedical Engineering Competition
in Sri Lanka
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The IEEE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka (IEEE
EMBS at UoM) is the sole EMBS student branch chapter in Sri Lanka. The student branch
chapter has been actively engaging in promoting biomedical engineering among the
university students in the country for the past 3 years from its inception. The
chapter works in collaboration with the biomedical specialization in the Department
of Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering of the University of Moratuwa which
is the pioneer biomedical engineering degree program in Sri Lanka. Biomedical engineering
is tremendously increasing its popularity in the fields of engineering and medicine
in Sri Lanka.
"Brainstorm 2018" is the premier biomedical engineering competition in Sri Lanka
that is organized by the IEEE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at the University of
Moratuwa. This competition intends to encourage the undergraduates of both medical
and engineering disciplines to contribute in solving problems in biology and medicine.
The competitors will present engineering solutions to current healthcare problems
in the country in the form of prototypes or ideas.
The objectives of the competition are multifold. Competitions like this would Increase
the involvement of undergraduates towards research related to biomedical engineering.
The competition provides them and opportunity to develop the skills of undergraduates
and groom them towards marketing their abilities and talents successfully. The competitive
nature helps building leadership skills of the undergraduates to meet the challenges
of the technologically advancing world. 'Brainstorm' will provide a platform for
the interaction of students between the EMBS, university and the industry, while
strengthening the existing bonds. Through this we hope to increase the diversity
of the membership of IEEE EMBS at UoM where they can gain a novel experience as
well as they could contribute towards EMBS.
The competition will be held on 5th October 2018. Approximately 200 undergraduates
of Sri Lankan higher education institutes in both engineering and medical disciplines
will participate. On the day of the competition the competitors will demonstrate
their solution to a problem related to healthcare. They should present their solutions,
considering the economic value, marketing factors and social impact. A discussion
on Sri Lankan biomedical industry and opportunities will be held as a part of the
event. Guest speeches will be done by international academic or a professional resource
personnel.
In addition to the main competition where prototype solutions are presented for
judgement, opportunity will be given to participants to pitch creative ideas for
healthcare related problems which have not yet been implemented. Since implementing
biomedical solutions in the real world is challenging, we are looking forward to
building a platform for such innovative ideas to be realized with the partnership
of Center for Biomedical Innovation at University of Moratuwa.
A workshop series is planned prior to the competition with the intention of assisting
the competitors with guidance to design and implementation of their ideas.
We thankful to IEEE EMBS and Diesel & Motor Engineering PLC, Sri Lanka (DIMO) for
their financial support given for this competition. We believe that we would be
able to accomplish this event successfully.

Controlling Seizures with Technology
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
RESEARCHERS ARE WORKING TO PREDICT AND PREVENT
EPILEPTIC SEIZURES BEFORE THEY HAPPEN.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mike McKenna was tired of epilepsy controlling his life. For years, he tried different
medications and therapies to no avail; his seizures, which occurred every three
to six days, dictated what he could do and where he could live. Then, about ten
years ago, he joined a clinical trial for a new, implantable medical device from
a company called NeuroPace. The RNS System monitors brain activity, detects patterns
that indicate an imminent seizure, and responds by sending brief electrical pulses
to disrupt the abnormal brain activity, stopping seizures in their tracks.

Development of an On-Chip Antibiotic Permeability Assay With
Single Molecule Detection Capability
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
by Fatma Dogan Guzel ; Funda Citak
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Electrophysiology is the method of choice to characterize membrane channels. In
this paper, the authors demonstrate a patch pipette based simple miniaturization
that allows performing conductance measurements on a planar lipid bilayer in a
microfluidic channel. Membrane proteins were reconstituted into Giant Unilamellar
Vesicles (GUVs) by electroswelling, and GUVs with a single channel insertion were
patched at the tip of pipette. They applied this approach to investigate the interactions
of porins from E.coli with single antibiotics, and this will potentially provide
information on the permeability rates. The results of this paper suggest that this
approach can be extended to the integration of several pipettes into the microfluidic
channel from different positions, allowing the multiplexed recordings and also reducing
the substrate consumption below μL volumes.

mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The IEEE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at=
the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka (IEEE EMBS at UoM) is the sole EMBS =
student branch chapter in Sri Lanka. The student branch chapter has been ac=
tively engaging in promoting biomedical engineering among the university st=
udents in the country for the past 3 years from its inception. The chapter=
works in collaboration with the biomedical specialization in the Departmen=
t of Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering of the University of Mora=
tuwa which is the pioneer biomedical engineering degree program in Sri Lank=
a. Biomedical engineering is tremendously increasing its popularity in the =
fields of engineering and medicine in Sri Lanka. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
"Brainstorm 2018" is the premier =
biomedical engineering competition in Sri Lanka that is organized by the IE=
EE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at the University of Moratuwa. This competit=
ion intends to encourage the undergraduates of both medical and engineering=
disciplines to contribute in solving problems in biology and medicine. The=
competitors will present engineering solutions to current healthcare probl=
ems in the country in the form of prototypes or ideas. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
The objectives of the competition=
are multifold. Competitions like this would Increase the involvement of un=
dergraduates towards research related to biomedical engineering. The compet=
ition provides them and opportunity to develop the skills of undergraduates=
and groom them towards marketing their abilities and talents successfully.=
The competitive nature helps building leadership skills of the undergradua=
tes to meet the challenges of the technologically advancing world. 'Brainst=
orm' will provide a platform for the interaction of students between the EM=
BS, university and the industry, while strengthening the existing bonds. Th=
rough this we hope to increase the diversity of the membership of IEEE EMBS=
at UoM where they can gain a novel experience as well as they could contri=
bute towards EMBS. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
The competition will be held on 5=
th October 2018. Approximately 200 undergraduates of Sri Lankan higher educ=
ation institutes in both engineering and medical disciplines will participa=
te. On the day of the competition the competitors will demonstrate their so=
lution to a problem related to healthcare. They should present their soluti=
ons, considering the economic value, marketing factors and social impact. A=
discussion on Sri Lankan biomedical industry and opportunities will be hel=
d as a part of the event. Guest speeches will be done by international acad=
emic or a professional resource personnel. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
In addition to the main competiti=
on where prototype solutions are presented for judgement, opportunity will =
be given to participants to pitch creative ideas for healthcare related pro=
blems which have not yet been implemented. Since implementing biomedical so=
lutions in the real world is challenging, we are looking forward to buildin=
g a platform for such innovative ideas to be realized with the partnership =
of Center for Biomedical Innovation at University of Moratuwa.
A works=
hop series is planned prior to the competition with the intention of assist=
ing the competitors with guidance to design and implementation of their ide=
as. m--===============1560535471==

"Brainstorm 2018"- The Premier Biomedical Engineering Competition
in Sri Lanka
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The IEEE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka (IEEE
EMBS at UoM) is the sole EMBS student branch chapter in Sri Lanka. The student branch
chapter has been actively engaging in promoting biomedical engineering among the
university students in the country for the past 3 years from its inception. The
chapter works in collaboration with the biomedical specialization in the Department
of Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering of the University of Moratuwa which
is the pioneer biomedical engineering degree program in Sri Lanka. Biomedical engineering
is tremendously increasing its popularity in the fields of engineering and medicine
in Sri Lanka.
"Brainstorm 2018" is the premier biomedical engineering competition in Sri Lanka
that is organized by the IEEE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at the University of
Moratuwa. This competition intends to encourage the undergraduates of both medical
and engineering disciplines to contribute in solving problems in biology and medicine.
The competitors will present engineering solutions to current healthcare problems
in the country in the form of prototypes or ideas.
The objectives of the competition are multifold. Competitions like this would Increase
the involvement of undergraduates towards research related to biomedical engineering.
The competition provides them and opportunity to develop the skills of undergraduates
and groom them towards marketing their abilities and talents successfully. The competitive
nature helps building leadership skills of the undergraduates to meet the challenges
of the technologically advancing world. 'Brainstorm' will provide a platform for
the interaction of students between the EMBS, university and the industry, while
strengthening the existing bonds. Through this we hope to increase the diversity
of the membership of IEEE EMBS at UoM where they can gain a novel experience as
well as they could contribute towards EMBS.
The competition will be held on 5th October 2018. Approximately 200 undergraduates
of Sri Lankan higher education institutes in both engineering and medical disciplines
will participate. On the day of the competition the competitors will demonstrate
their solution to a problem related to healthcare. They should present their solutions,
considering the economic value, marketing factors and social impact. A discussion
on Sri Lankan biomedical industry and opportunities will be held as a part of the
event. Guest speeches will be done by international academic or a professional resource
personnel.
In addition to the main competition where prototype solutions are presented for
judgement, opportunity will be given to participants to pitch creative ideas for
healthcare related problems which have not yet been implemented. Since implementing
biomedical solutions in the real world is challenging, we are looking forward to
building a platform for such innovative ideas to be realized with the partnership
of Center for Biomedical Innovation at University of Moratuwa.
A workshop series is planned prior to the competition with the intention of assisting
the competitors with guidance to design and implementation of their ideas.
We thankful to IEEE EMBS and Diesel & Motor Engineering PLC, Sri Lanka (DIMO) for
their financial support given for this competition. We believe that we would be
able to accomplish this event successfully.

Controlling Seizures with Technology
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
RESEARCHERS ARE WORKING TO PREDICT AND PREVENT
EPILEPTIC SEIZURES BEFORE THEY HAPPEN.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mike McKenna was tired of epilepsy controlling his life. For years, he tried different
medications and therapies to no avail; his seizures, which occurred every three
to six days, dictated what he could do and where he could live. Then, about ten
years ago, he joined a clinical trial for a new, implantable medical device from
a company called NeuroPace. The RNS System monitors brain activity, detects patterns
that indicate an imminent seizure, and responds by sending brief electrical pulses
to disrupt the abnormal brain activity, stopping seizures in their tracks.

Development of an On-Chip Antibiotic Permeability Assay With
Single Molecule Detection Capability
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
by Fatma Dogan Guzel ; Funda Citak
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Electrophysiology is the method of choice to characterize membrane channels. In
this paper, the authors demonstrate a patch pipette based simple miniaturization
that allows performing conductance measurements on a planar lipid bilayer in a
microfluidic channel. Membrane proteins were reconstituted into Giant Unilamellar
Vesicles (GUVs) by electroswelling, and GUVs with a single channel insertion were
patched at the tip of pipette. They applied this approach to investigate the interactions
of porins from E.coli with single antibiotics, and this will potentially provide
information on the permeability rates. The results of this paper suggest that this
approach can be extended to the integration of several pipettes into the microfluidic
channel from different positions, allowing the multiplexed recordings and also reducing
the substrate consumption below μL volumes.

mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The IEEE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at=
the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka (IEEE EMBS at UoM) is the sole EMBS =
student branch chapter in Sri Lanka. The student branch chapter has been ac=
tively engaging in promoting biomedical engineering among the university st=
udents in the country for the past 3 years from its inception. The chapter=
works in collaboration with the biomedical specialization in the Departmen=
t of Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering of the University of Mora=
tuwa which is the pioneer biomedical engineering degree program in Sri Lank=
a. Biomedical engineering is tremendously increasing its popularity in the =
fields of engineering and medicine in Sri Lanka. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
"Brainstorm 2018" is the premier =
biomedical engineering competition in Sri Lanka that is organized by the IE=
EE EMBS Student Branch Chapter at the University of Moratuwa. This competit=
ion intends to encourage the undergraduates of both medical and engineering=
disciplines to contribute in solving problems in biology and medicine. The=
competitors will present engineering solutions to current healthcare probl=
ems in the country in the form of prototypes or ideas. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
The objectives of the competition=
are multifold. Competitions like this would Increase the involvement of un=
dergraduates towards research related to biomedical engineering. The compet=
ition provides them and opportunity to develop the skills of undergraduates=
and groom them towards marketing their abilities and talents successfully.=
The competitive nature helps building leadership skills of the undergradua=
tes to meet the challenges of the technologically advancing world. 'Brainst=
orm' will provide a platform for the interaction of students between the EM=
BS, university and the industry, while strengthening the existing bonds. Th=
rough this we hope to increase the diversity of the membership of IEEE EMBS=
at UoM where they can gain a novel experience as well as they could contri=
bute towards EMBS. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
The competition will be held on 5=
th October 2018. Approximately 200 undergraduates of Sri Lankan higher educ=
ation institutes in both engineering and medical disciplines will participa=
te. On the day of the competition the competitors will demonstrate their so=
lution to a problem related to healthcare. They should present their soluti=
ons, considering the economic value, marketing factors and social impact. A=
discussion on Sri Lankan biomedical industry and opportunities will be hel=
d as a part of the event. Guest speeches will be done by international acad=
emic or a professional resource personnel. mily:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
In addition to the main competiti=
on where prototype solutions are presented for judgement, opportunity will =
be given to participants to pitch creative ideas for healthcare related pro=
blems which have not yet been implemented. Since implementing biomedical so=
lutions in the real world is challenging, we are looking forward to buildin=
g a platform for such innovative ideas to be realized with the partnership =
of Center for Biomedical Innovation at University of Moratuwa.
A works=
hop series is planned prior to the competition with the intention of assist=
ing the competitors with guidance to design and implementation of their ide=
as. m |
