Sling Health is a student-run group that facilitates bio-engineering design and entrepreneurship on campus. This incubator brings together student teams from various backgrounds to address medical issues and improve healthcare. Teams are made up of health focused students, such as medical, engineering, law, and business students, to bring their expertise to the problems facing healthcare today. Our four objectives for what students will attain as a part of Sling Health at UM are as follows.1. To learn about medical entrepreneurship in a multidisciplinary context, with engineering, medical business, and legal perspectives, while gaining team leadership and technical experience.2. To join a fast-growing national network that has produced many prototypes, patents, and startups.3. To work with other bright students and faculty on a problem of interest with the supporting resources. 4. Develop novel devices and software applications targeting unmet clinical needs.Our 2024-25 season will kickoff with the Sling Health Problem Day on September 24th from 6-8 PM at the Danto Auditorium at the Frankel Cardiovascular Center. Dinner will be provided!Please RSVP here for the event: https://forms.gle/X3GrBJAC9rdHcbyp7We are also looking for students to serve as team leaders this year where you will pitch a healthcare problem that you are looking to solve at the Problem Day event.
