Inventors Activities August Update

Aug, 29 2018

This month has been time of high activity. Most of our team has completed summer school and are ready to put more work into the InvenTeam proposal.

We started by getting educated about the potential users of our device and about how sleep is measured. Our sleep mentor is Dr. Stephen Brown. Dr. Brown runs the sleep clinic at Long Beach Memorial and provided us with a tour of the facility.

The team is learning about brain wave signature from the super sleep technician Denise. Students learned how to distinguish between awake and asleep brainwave patterns and to recognize REM sleep etc.

Two members of the team attended an event hosted by US Congressman Ted Lieu. Ted Lieu is the Representative for our district and the students wanted to reach out to him for support of this project and invention education for high school students.

The team is in the final days of the proposal process and had the chance to present their ideas to Frank yang, the founder and CEO of Simple Human.
