MD/M.Eng Candidate
Texas A&M School of Engineering Medicine
Pepper Pike, OH, United States
Keyvon Rashidi, BSE, is an MD/M.Eng candidate at the School of Engineering Medicine at Texas A&M University. His interests include plastic and reconstructive surgery, medical innovation, and mathematical modeling of human physiology. In addition to being a medical student, Keyvon is an inventor who holds a full utility patent for a novel stent (US11523920B2). Moreover, During his time at BRYGGS Medical, Keyvon led the design of components for a test rig used in establishing FDA-required substantial equivalency of BRYGGS ULTepap™, an expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) device, with its predicate counterparts. Furthermore, Keyvon designed a clip that attaches to BRYGGS ULTepap™ medical device to allow for validation of airflow for polysomnography studies, which is currently on the market for research institutions and hospitals to purchase for clinical validation of the ULTepap™ device.
As a future physician innovator, Keyvon wants to work with a tightly-knit cohort of physicians and engineers, taking an interdisciplinary approach to guiding and developing novel medical devices to provide equitable and inclusive medical care to a diverse group of patients. As a member of such specialized teams, he wants to aid in bridging the gap between the fields of engineering and medicine, partake in open collaboration, and help advance the field of medicine in addressing long-standing medical needs.
