We are a non-for-profit biomedical engineering and research organization based in western Uganda in Mbarara city that intends to bridge the gap between hospitals, healthcare workers, biomedical engineers, equipment suppliers and healthcare students who are interested in improving patient care through Research and Innovation based on biomedical technology including Al Nanoscience, quantum physics, among others. It aims at improving patient care in both private and government hospitals through training, equipping, installing, maintaining, calibrating, servicing and repair of medical equipment/devices.

Low resource hospitals cannot afford to pay biomedical engineers to maintain and service their equipment. Equipment breakdown is high in LMC’s due to delayed/lack of maintenance, servicing, lack of timely repair, poor equipment handling and use skills.  Patients have suffered from radiation exposures and excess energies due to uncalibrated and standardized equipment . Due to poor training on use of biomedical equipment & devices have led to miss-diagnosis and infection transfer due to poor cleaning and dis-infection of these devices as they are used from one patient to another.

We aim to close these gaps through training of biomedical engineers, students and hospital staff on effective use, maintenance and standardization of medical equipment through research and innovation.
