focused on promoting diversity in the next generation ofneuroengineers to perform convergent science by integrating the latest advanced in neuroscience,engineering, and computer science in an ethical way. NeuralStorm promotes diversity andconvergent science by integrating multiple programs on campus, with core members beingneuroscience, psychology, biomedical engineering, computer science, mechanical and aerospaceengineering, and electrical and computer engineering. The program has since enrolled 16 fundedPh.D. student fellows, of whom 8 are women and 3 are underrepresented minorities. Everystudent who is interested in neuroengineering can register as an unfunded trainee and attend theevents organized by NeuralStorm. An additional 77 Ph.D

correlate with public trust andacceptance of AVs, with wealthier regions showing higher adoption rates compared tolow-income areas. This disparity raises ethical concerns regarding equitable access to AVtechnology and the risk of widening socio-economic gaps through uneven AV deployment.To address these challenges, this research proposes a flexible framework for AV deploymentthat is adaptable across regions with varied infrastructure and socio-economic profiles. Thisframework underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, where engineersmust work alongside policymakers, urban planners, and data scientists to ensure that AVs canoperate reliably across both structured and unstructured environments. By fostering skills thatallow future

SkillsIntroduction:Global healthcare immersion is challenging for undergraduate biomedical engineering (BME)students due to travel, costs, and logistics. Yet ABET now requires that undergraduates developthe “ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations andmake informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global,economic, environmental, and societal contexts.” Experiences abroad expose students to diverseclinical settings, constraints, and cultural perspectives, boosting problem-solving skills forequitable healthcare solutions. However, many programs rely on short-term extracurriculars,internships, or small capstone cohorts, making large-scale foreign immersion infeasible. Tosupport
