UCL MedTech Society

As the largest MedTech society in Europe, we explore how the fields of Biomedicine, Technology, and Enterprise overlap to shape the rapidly expanding field of MedTech to help our members understand and find their own place in the MedTech world. We do this by running national events such as our Hackathon and AI in Medicine Conference, the largest student held a conference in UCL history, cutting edge talks from world-renowned speakers, networking opportunities with top MedTech companies, and our new online platform, The MedTech Portal.

Use our new online platform to keep up to date with the latest MedTech news or start your learning from the ground up using our articles, videos, and online learning resources. We’ve broken this complex field down for you by splitting it up into Biomedicine, Technology and Enterprise, with each containing further subtopics. Use our online platform to learn more about these each of these topics and get a comprehensive understanding of the MedTech world!
