Boston Scientific Capstone Project
Embedded Files
As part of a year-long capstone project with Boston Scientific, my team focused on improving the sustainability of their endoscopy forceps product line. We delivered three novel designs — two reusable and one single-use. My partner and I led the development of one of the reusable models, resulting in a patent-pending invention that significantly enhances device sustainability.
Public Project Description:
The Single Use Biopsy Forceps are a medical device designed to collect tissue endoscopically for histologic examination. This project involved the development of processes and design changes that can enhance the sustainability of Boston Scientific Single Use Biopsy Forceps, assisting them in meeting their goal of being carbon neutral by 2050. This can be achieved by reducing the carbon dioxide emissions from the creation, use, and waste streams of their line of Biopsy Forceps products, while maintaining their performance and use.
