DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how living organisms create and control 
 electrical energy?  Come learn how living cells use nanopumps and ion chann
 els to generate and transmit signals that control everything from how hard 
 you click a mouse to how quickly your heart beats.  Matthieu and Krystoff\,
  biomedical engineers with the world’s largest implantable medical device m
 anufacturer\, Medtronic\, will discuss these principles and more\, as we co
 ver everything from neural signal processing to heart rhythm control.
\n 
\
 nExplore the rapidly growing field of bioelectronic devices and get a chanc
 e to build your own EKG machine.  Come learn how implantable pacemakers and
  defibrillators track and control heart rhythms\, and allow doctors to hack
  patient biorhythms remotely via a combined internet and RF communication c
 hannel.  Additionally\, the science of pacing and defibrillation therapies 
 will be discussed along with a demonstration of the effects of therapeutic 
 electrical shocks. 
\n 
\nThere will be a kit available to build. Purchasin
 g the kit is not required. If you do purchase a kit\, you will want to brin
 g a laptop to view the output from the ECG. No tools are required.
