On this episode recorded at the end of May 2021, we caught up with SBME Grad Students Maryam Tayyab and Emily Bliven on the Graduate experience at SBME, the role of student leadership, the SBME Graduate Association, and more. All episodes available on to watch on YouTubeGuests: Maryam TayyabMASc Student, Tam Lab, SBMEMaryam is a Master's student at the School of biomedical engineering, president of BMEGA and co-chair of BMEGA REDI subcommittee. Her research is on developing machine learning methods to predict clinical outcomes in populations with neurological disorders like Multiple Sclerosis. Maryam is a strong advocate of respect, equity, inclusion and diversity in the workplace and graduate school. In her free time, she loves to hike, hit the beaches and explore Vancouver every chance she can get. Learn more about MaryamEmily BlivenPhD Student, Cripton Lab, SBMEEmily hails from the island of Alameda, California and studied Mechanical Engineering (B.Sc.) and Biomedical Engineering (M.Eng.) at the University of Portland in Oregon. She worked in industry researching fracture fixation plates, WaveCel helmet technology, and at a German biomechanics laboratory before moving to British Columbia. Her work at UBC concerns strengthening the femur with an orthopaedic implant to prevent fracture. Learn more about Emily hereHosts: PAYAM ZAHEDIStrategic Planning &amp; Operations Director, SBME Payam is a born problem solver and dot connector who believes that real impact only occurs when everyone is given the means to chase it. He's the Director of Strategic Planning and Operations at UBC's School of Biomedical Engineering and holds a BASc in Biomedical Engineering and an MSc and PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences, from the University of Toronto. He believes we are better together and is an advocate for equity and inclusivity. In his spare time, when he's not chasing his two sons around, he's experimenting in the kitchen, reading crime fiction and untangling the mechanisms of effective leadership. MIGUEL EICHELBERGERCommunications &amp; Engagement Manager, SBME Miguel is an unflinching optimist. He is a communicator and writer whose work has appeared in literary magazines and on stages around the world. His most recent publications include Harpur Palate, the Literary Review of Canada, Plainsongs Magazine, and Soliloquies Anthology. He believes in authenticity; in doing and saying what you actually believe, and he is an obsessive student of leadership from the biological and anthropological perspectives. You've likely heard him rant about it, and he's not sorry.

SBME Interfaces with Maryam Tayyab and Emily Bliven

This Student Voices episode is hosted by Loay Al-Salehi and Emily Bliven, PhD students in the Orthopaedic Injury Biomechanics Lab at the University of British Columbia. This episode includes an interview with three researchers in the field of injury biomechanics: Dr. Pierre Guy, Dr. Peter Cripton, and Dr. Gunter Siegmund.In this interview, Loay and Emily introduce injury biomechanics as a topic and navigate the interdisciplinary aspects of working in such a field. Dr. Guy is an orthopaedic trauma surgeon who researches hip fracture injury biomechanics with Dr. Cripton, a mechanical engineering professor and researcher. Dr. Siegmund is a lead engineer at MEA Forensic and collaborates with Dr Cripton in studying automotive and neck-related injury biomechanics. The three discuss how the fields of medicine, forensics, engineering, and teaching all come into play as necessary and collaborative components of injury biomechanics research. Topics range from personal pathways to current careers, the use of human surrogates, future technologies, principles fundamental to injury biomechanics, and examples of different professions that are integral to successful collaboration in the field.
