Changing the World Through STEM: My Journey from Student to Growing Hearts
Begin your STEM journey and discover how students like you can help shape the future of medicine!
As part of the wider Graeme Clark Oration event, this student-focussed webinar is designed especially for high school students, showcasing pathways into STEM and real-world innovation. This webinar will provide young audiences with valuable insights from leaders shaping the future of science and technology.
Could we one day grow a living, beating human heart in a laboratory? And what if new treatments could be developed without the need for animal testing?
Join Professor Milica Radisic, a globally recognised leader in tissue engineering, for this webinar as she explores how scientists are creating living human tissues from stem cells and developing “organs-on-a-chip.”
Learn how this groundbreaking research is reshaping modern medicine and how a career in STEM can empower you to make a meaningful impact on the world.
What You'll Learn
- How researchers grow human tissue in the lab
- What “organs-on-a-chip” are and how they’re used
- Study and career pathways into biomedical engineering and STEM
- How these advances are shaping the future of healthcare
