Abstract
Neural engineering and Neurotech is rapidly growing in popularity in industry, academia, and consumer markets. With UW being a world class research institution in neurotechnologies, Synaptech holds the mission of educating interested students on cutting edge research and developments in neurotech through hands-on experience. This year, Synaptech is launching long-term projects (for NeurotechX's Student Clubs Competition) and hardware video tutorials, as well as the continuation of hackathons and workshops to enrich the opportunities available for students interested in joining the neurotech community. We request STF funding to support the expansion of these project-based efforts as student interest has been rapidly increasing.
