BID4R Lab at the 2025 ASEE Conference

The Biologically Inspired Design for Resilience(BID4R) Lab had four presenting authors at the 2025 American Society of Engineering Education(ASEE) Conference. The four presenting authors, Noa Teed, Mikayla Dutkiewicz, Noah Pointer, and Dr. Bryan Watson(representing Rasika Kale), presented in three different technical sessions spanning three ASEE divisions. The BID4R Lab members actively participated in several events and poster sessions, while frequenting the exhibition hall to learn about new technology and products. Here is what Mikayla had to say about attending the conference. “I enjoyed interacting with people who had questions and genuinely wanted to learn more. The whole environment was centered around curiosity and learning, and it made me more thoughtful about how I was framing and communicating my research.” Noah mentioned “On top of having a great time presenting our research and meeting new people, I think it was fun for all of us to explore parts of Montreal, like the historic downtown or navigating through the underground city.”
