Medicine’s ground state is uncertainty. And wisdom-for both patients and doctors- is how one copes with it.

eMED: An Ambitious Group Working to Connect Technology and Medicine
About us
Welcome to the University of Pennsylvania’s Engineers in Medicine (eMed) Club! eMED is an engineering club for pre-med students and engineers interested in learning more about the intersection of medicine and technology. Our club was founded in 2006 by an engineer who realized that there was a growing number of engineers who wished to enter into the medical field who lacked a support network and guidance. We hold events to share advice about pursuing medicine as an engineer, succeeding on the pre-medical track, networking with mentors and professionals, exploring research and emerging topics, and hosting fun and engaging events for the Penn community.
