Ok, so, the new posts are getting filled with uwu stuff. Not complaining and its wholesome and sweet but I thought, where's the science/engineering nerd part in here. Lately, I've been reading tissue engineering stuff like scaffolds, bioreactors, etc. and I find it interesting now. Tissue engineering aims to repair, replace or regenerate tissue or organ function and to create artificial tissues and organs for transplantation. We have scaffolds that helps the cells to grow and repair or make a tissue by allowing the cells to attach on the scaffold and grow on/in them. This is probably not the place to post this but I'm looking for someone that is interested or in this field. I have some questions like how can Boron promote the bone cell regeneration and its mechanism or how does this field inspire you?
Besides that, I also been trying to improve myself. I started keeping a spreadsheet and plan my day, set goals, write down achievements of the day and what I've learn. Do you have anything you do to keep yourself being productive, focused and discipline? Do you have a routine for self-care? How do you find encouragement or keep your mind positive? How do you keep on growing healthily?

Hello. My name is Dr. Michael Noseworthy, a professor in Biomedical Engineering at McMaster University in Hamilton Ontario Canada. My research focuses on medical imaging technology. More specifically I work on development of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) approaches to assessing healthy and diseased human tissues. A lot of my work is directed towards imaging brain and muscle tissues.
I'll be back at 1 pm EDT (10 am PDT, 6 pm UTC) to answer your questions, ask me anything!

So I just got admitted to biomedical engineering at Texas A&M for the sophomore year, and I'm very passionate about it. Looking at a lot of the posts on this subreddit, it's starting to seem like just a BS in BMEN won't be enough to secure myself a place in the biomedical industry four years down the road; so I'm curious, to those of you with experience in the industry, what would be the best minor pursue given my interests? Math? Chemistry? Electrical engineering? Biology?
I have made a few designs in the past, however they appear to not fit the needs of our experiment. I was wondering if anyone would be able to help create this design as it is a bit out of my realm of expertise (I'm a physiologist, so not all that 3D print design savvy). The imgur file (http://imgur.com/a/YUHdc) shows the basic design outline with loads of room for artistic/biomedical discretion. Here are some of the previous STL file versions (https://www.sendspace.com/filegroup/3j2KTiU7kMzQyS1gVClgndyr7W%2BwFgn%2F) which can be used for general dimensions needed and once again any design changes that you think would be beneficial I am all for it. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it. Let me know if you have any questions interpreting my drawings.As far as the usage, we are using a section of biopsied tissue to place in the bottom of the bath that will then be use to record from. We will seal the bottom open portion (the rectangle) with a piece of glass so that it can be image from the bottom. The inflow and outflow holes are so that we can place tubing in there to send fluid through. Lastly, the two stimulating electrode holes will be used to place wires through to electrically stimulate the tissue. As such, it would be beneficial to have no really tight corners for cleaning purposes and those chamfered edges for ease of dissection. Hope that helps. I will gladly acknowledge anyone in the aknowledgments section of the publication
