In this two-quarter course series (
BIOE 374A/B,
MED 272A/B,
ME 368A/B,
OIT 384/5), multidisciplinary student teams identify real-world unmet healthcare needs, invent new medtech products to address them, and plan for their development into patient care. During the first quarter (winter 2017), students select and characterize an important unmet healthcare problem, validate it through primary interviews and secondary research, and then brainstorm and screen initial technology-based solutions. In the second quarter (spring 2017), teams select a lead solution and move it toward the market through prototyping, technical re-risking, strategies to address healthcare-specific requirements (regulation, reimbursement), and business planning. Final presentations in winter and spring are made to a panel of prominent medtech experts and investors. Class sessions include faculty-led instruction and case demonstrations, coaching sessions by industry specialists, expert guest lecturers, and interactive team meetings. Enrollment is by application only, and students are expected to participate in both quarters of the course. Visit

MED 274: Design for Service Innovation (BIOE 372, HRP 274)
(Same as
OIT 343/01) Open to graduate students from all schools and departments. An experiential project course in which students work in multidisciplinary teams to design new services to address the needs of medically patients. Project teams partner with "safety net" hospitals and clinics to find better ways to deliver care to the low income and uninsured patients these institutions serve. Students learn proven innovation processes from experienced GSB, d. school, and SoM faculty, interface with students from across the university, and have the opportunity to see their ideas translated into improvements in the quality and efficiency of healthcare in the real world. Prerequisite: admission to the course is by application only. Applications available at
http://DesignForService.stanford.edu. Applications must be submitted by November 16, 2011.
Last offered: Winter 2012
MED 275B: Biodesign: Medical Technology Innovation
An introduction to medical technology design, ideation and prototyping. Students will work in teams on open-ended technology design projects that aim to address areas of under-met clinical need. Lecture topics will also include regulatory affairs, intellectual property, marketing and venture capital. Final deliverables include presentation of needs and solutions to an outside panel of experts in medical technology. This course is open to engineering and non-engineering students of all levels.
