Dr. Bing meets with the press after a conference in China. Informed. Involved. Engaged.

In keeping with the guiding principles of Marquette University and the core values of the Medical College of Wisconsin, our team at the Biophotonics Laboratory participates in a wide variety of outreach activities both at home and abroad. 

Our outreach activities are designed to help us ensure that our projects are meeting the needs of the communities we serve, that our innovations are reaching the people they are meant to help, and that the next generation of scientists knows that we are excited to work with them as they make their mark on the next wave of biomedical innovation.

Whether presenting new technologies on the global stage or meeting with students right here in our own backyard, we could not be successful without the  support of our community, and we will continue to reach out to our community as we seek new ways to remain informed, involved, and engaged. 

 

Get connected.  

High school students tour the Biophotonics Lab.

The Biophotonics Laboratory at the Marquette University and Medical College of Wisconsin Department of Biomedical Engineering is always looking for new ways to connect with the community.  If you are interested in hosting an event or bringing your students to tour the lab, contact Dr. Bing Yu.
