Wednesday

Today students worked in groups in the morning.

After lunch students met with Steve Barrett and Cameron Wright in the engineering building. The students were given a presentation about current work in their field. This work includes automating laser surgery on the retina, patient care for emergency personnel in war zones, as well as fly eye sensors. The last topic was well covered and we will all view flies differently now. We then went for a tour of the labs where this work is being done. It appears that this will benefit many different fields. The students are also encouraged to email any questions they might have to Steve or Cameron, who knows they might even accept our students for graduate school.

After this tour the students split up again into groups to work a bit more on their write-ups for Friday.
