Spring 2023 Tech Symposium winners

Design II Winners:

1^st place, $4,000 prize: Print & Click (Josiah Lozano, Charles Otte, Ben Torres, John Dejillo, Keahra Etuk & Esteban Mejia)

Over 160,000 skin grafts are performed in U.S. hospitals annually, with one in three burn hospitalizations requiring a skin graft. The team’s proposed bioprinting system included a novel mixing system to improve cell uniformity and is housed in an enclosure capable of maintaining the optimal conditions for the printed cells.

2^nd place, $3,000 prize: MOI Measurements (Veronika Granado, Stanley Ngo, J Barbosa & Mason Longmore)

This device measures the Moment of Inertia (MOI) of small test objects used in the UTSA Hypersonics Lab. The importance of measuring MOI is to predict the object’s behavior during free flight and produce results in fluid dynamic…
