What is the BMET Wiki[]
The BMET wiki was created help fill a void in the information exchange in the biomed community. This wiki is like no other tool we have used before, integrating video, pictures, and text. We can compile data that before would have taken hours to search for, or may not even existed. Another advantage of the BMET wiki is that information will have been collected, compiled, and presented by biomeds. Before we may have found tidbits of information out of articles that were written for nurses, electrical engineers or other professionals, now this data will be presented in a way that is relevant to our field.
