About Us
“Design x Health consists of over 400 students across Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), and the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University (AMS) who work at the intersection of design and health through joining long term projects. We have several active projects, each with a dedicated faculty mentor from AMS, Brown, or RISD, along with 10-20 active students. Project teams set their own goals, from entrepreneurship to research to community advocacy and service.
