Center for Medical Innovation – Bench-to-Bedside 

Bench to Bedside is facilitated by the Center for Medical Inovation and open to all students at the University of Utah. The idea of this competition is to have students form interdisciplinary teams that will create an idea for a medical innovation. Students do not need to be on a team to participate and do not have to put any money into this. Teams are given money to be able to prototype their idea, teams will work with mentors, and at the end, teams will compete in April by presenting idea and poster to judges. Over $80,000 of prizes were given out last at the last competition. If anyone has questions, they can reach out to Joe Simpson (joe.simpson@pharm.utah.edu) or Jake Bell (MS2, Jacob.bell@hsc.utah.edu)
