Ever wondered what graduate school is like? Curious what you'd do with a Master's or PhD? Want to know if it's for you? Wonder no longer! The ABE Graduate Student Association is hosting a virtual panel of graduate students ready to answer your questions.

What will the future of robotics and healthcare look like? Please join us for a webinar on the Future of Robotics and Healthcare, where we have assembled a distinguished panel of experts with perspectives from academia and industry, to discuss these topics such as: robotic nurses, surgical robots, disinfecting robots, rehabilitation robotics, and robotics and automation for drug discovery and patient testing. Tune in to see how far these technologies are from becoming a reality and how the 2020 pandemic is shaping these developments.
