In addition to the conference sessions, we are thrilled to announce two competitions designed to showcase and celebrate innovation in biomedical engineering:

  • EBMES Projects Competition:

This competition aims to recognize groundbreaking projects at the intersection of Biomedical Engineering and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Participants are required to submit a comprehensive proposal of their projects, including a problem statement, research background, methodology, results, and conclusions. Additionally, participants must create a video showcasing their project implementation and prototype. The video should be no longer than 3 minutes and effectively communicate the key aspects of the project, including innovation, technical excellence, impact, and feasibility.

  • EBMES Research Competition:

To foster the spirit of innovation and scientific research among engineering students, we invite undergraduate and postgraduate students from engineering faculties across Egypt to demonstrate their skills, talent, and innovative ideas in engineering sciences. Detailed guidelines for project and research submissions are provided in the accompanying PDFs.

Our first two conferences were resounding successes, gathering healthcare leaders, biomedical engineers, and professionals from around the globe. These events served as a platform for sharing experiences, solving existing problems in the healthcare industry, and discussing the latest technologies and trends in patient care quality and medical equipment management.

The positive feedback and active participation have set a high standard, and we are eager to continue this tradition of excellence. Join us for an enlightening and thought-provoking experience at the 3rd EBMES Conference. Engage with industry experts, network with like-minded professionals, and explore groundbreaking advancements that are shaping the future of healthcare.
