Hi! My name is Megha Agrawal and I’m an international student from India. I’m a Bioengineering major and on the Computational and Systems Biology track with minors in CS and Informatics. I love playing basketball and reading in my free time. I have been on exec since my sophomore year and was on a committee in my freshman year so I have a lot of experience with BMES. So feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Hi everyone! I’m a senior in Bioengieering with a minor in Electrical Engineering on the Biomechanics track. I’ve been a part of BMES for three years now, serving as Volunteer Chair, Social Chair, and now your Vice President! I currently work in the Neurorehabilitation lab and Amos Group in the BIOE dept, and have been the student lead/director of GEUAR for two years (fun fact, I’m the admin of @uofigrainger). Outside of engineering, I’m extremely passionate about teaching, and will talk my head off if you ask me about anything related to soccer. I’m a world traveler, and am eager to make new memories with you all as we embark on an exciting academic year!

Hi! I am a sophomore in bioengineering on the cell and tissue track. Outside of BMES I am involved in climbing club, iMade and Engineering Council. I spend my free time at the gym, watching reality tv, and taking naps.
I'm Alexander Chang, a junior in bioengineering. Currently I am on the biomechanics track, and I am also pursuing a minor in music. With 2 years of experience with BMES workshop committee and 1 year on the EOH committee, I would love to continue helping these parts of BMES grow. My current research interest is movement disorders, and I have been pursuing this in the Mobility and Fall Prevention Laboratory, investigating disorders such as Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis. Outside of school I've been a pianist for thirteen years, and an amateur 3D artist for seven. You also might see me outside taking pictures of random animals for the squirrel and birdwatching club.
