Baylis Medical pledged $300,000 toward Waterloo University Engineering

MONTREAL, May 4, 2016—Baylis Medical is donating $300,000 to support future innovations by University of Waterloo systems design and biomedical engineering students.

The Baylis Medical Student Garage will further the development of knowledge and resources toward educating the biomedical engineers of the future” says Kris Shah, President of Baylis Medical Company Inc. and a Waterloo Engineering graduate.
