The Queen's Biomedical Innovation Team is hiring! QBiT is looking to hire a small number of talented, driven, passionate individuals to help with app design and development for our Post Concussion Syndrome Mitigation Project (described below)! If this sounds like an exciting opportunity for you, send your resume and cover letter to [email protected] . ... The DEADLINE to apply is Sunday, January 19th @11:59pm. We also welcome any questions you may have! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This project aims to mitigate the symptoms and negative quality of life impacts associated with Post Concussion Syndrome (PCS). The concept for the project is to develop an app that helps individuals monitor their tolerances regarding physical activity and symptoms through measuring and monitoring heart rate. The app will also provide additional information that the individual can use for activity recommendations. The target audience of the app is youth athletes, however any individual will be able to access the app. The goal of the project is to enable individuals with PCS to return to activity without experiencing severe symptoms and provide documentation for the user and health care professionals.

QBiT is running a FREE Introduction to Arduino Workshop open to ANYONE this Thursday, November 14th in the Human Mobility Resource Centre!
