We had an excellent SMST Demo Day 2024 (Day 1). The students, as well as the TAs, have worked extremely hard in the last month(s) to present unique projects ranging from a Spirometry system, Whole side imager, polarization microscopy for malaria detection, non-invasive hemoglobin estimator to fundus image segmentation tool, Virtual Stain Generator and so on. You may still visit us on Day 2 for repeat demos and more new stuff.

This exemplifies the incredible talent we hold in the School and the country and demonstrates how things can be achieved if there is a will and a solid team to back it up.

Kudos to our and students and the battery of TAs backing them up! We thank the faculty mentors and the school leadership for their sustained support and guidance.
