Five Biomedical Engineering students from Abu Dhabi’s Khalifa University, including two Emirati students, have flown to Washington, D.C., to participate in the Children’s National Medical Center’s annual Student Innovators Program, a program sponsored by the Sheikh Zayed Institute for Pediatric Surgical Innovation. The students were selected alongside 23 others from universities around the world, and will have access to world-class pediatric healthcare facilities and educational opportunities at the Sheikh Zayed Institute. The Program provides hands-on exposure for students to innovative treatments, and research devices under development at the Institute. This is the second consecutive year that students from the United Arab Emirates have been selected to participate in the international program.
Eiman Hammoudi (Emirati), Shatha Alwahhabi (Emirati), Zainab Moazzam (Pakistani), Enas Osman (Sudanese) and Noaf Al Wahab (Iraqi) will spend two months at Washington, D.C.’s leading pediatric hospital, Children’s National Medical Center, which is also home to the Sheikh Zayed Institute for Pediatric Surgical Innovation which was founded in September 2009 thanks to a generous gift of $150 million from the government of Abu Dhabi.
