Background

About David Bettan

Hello, I am a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) Year 1 student at McGill University, looking to explore opportunities at the intersection of clinical dentistry, biotechnology, and medical innovation. I am also a graduate of McGill's Bioengineering program, where I developed a strong foundation in biomedical device design and diagnostics. With a passion for healthcare technology and preventative medicine, I am particularly interested in developing tools and systems that bridge engineering and medicine to improve patient outcomes. Through my academic coursework, research projects, and internships, I have gained hands-on experience in biotechnological device fabrication, testing, and data analysis. My technical toolkit includes spectrophotometry, electrophoresis, and electrochemical biosensing, along with programming in Python and MATLAB for data modeling and interpretation. I have also worked extensively with CAD software and various 3D printing techniques to design and prototype biomedical devices. Always eager to collaborate and learn, I’m looking forward to applying engineering-driven thinking to real-world challenges in healthcare and dentistry.
