The Optimizing Innovation, Commercialization and Entrepreneurship of Biomedical Research program of the CCTS, in partnership with Design, Biomedical Engineering, M4Lab and other partners, presents a graduate-level, project-based experiential course on medical device development. In addition to using the co-design process to ascertain the human potential of the invention, the early technology development course will nurture entrepreneurial capacities and mindsets in participating students and faculty. Students will learn how to translate technical, scientific or creative concepts to innovative business ideas & to create value for patients and people who are the ultimate beneficiaries.

StudySearch was created to enhance visibility and participation in research studies conducted throughout OSU and NCH. With approximately 30,000 site visits in the past year, it provides an easy way for potential study participants to find basic, descriptive information about openly recruiting research studies and trials and provides them with contact information to learn more.
Researchers with an IRB approved study that are currently seeking volunteers can follow these directions to submit a study within StudySearch to ensure their study is listed on StudySearch. No additional IRB oversight is necessary to list your study.

NIH is offering a series of webinars and small group discussions focused on helping undergraduate students, postbacs, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in the sciences develop the resilience needed to thrive in high-knowledge environments. This material is helpful for trainees just starting out, those contemplating their next educational move and who are mentoring others. Groups will be organized by educational level so trainees can talk with others experiencing similar educational, work and life stressors.
Trainees who participate in the webinar or who watch the webinar online at another time, are welcome to participate in the small group discussions. Groups will be held each Monday and Tuesday one week following the webinar. Trainees who complete five of the small groups and who participate in, or watch, all of the webinars will receive a certificate upon completion of the series. The series topics and dates are listed below:
JANUARY
Lecture 1/12/21
Groups week of 1/18
FEBRUARY
Lecture 2/9/21
Groups week of 2/15
In addition, the OITE will sponsor a several webinars focused on the mental health and wellness of biomedical trainees. Many of the webinars will end with small group discussions and a chance for us to practice new skills and jointly explore new topics. Please mark your calendar for October 5 from 1 – 3:30 EST for our first webinar. The topic is suicide prevention and awareness (to mark suicide prevention month in September); the webinar will be open to trainees, staff and faculty with discussion groups for each population.
