About the WICE Project
The WICE project is a pioneering initiative by the Clinical Engineering Division, dedicated to showcasing and enhancing the contributions of women in clinical engineering.
Our mission is to analyze and promote female participation in this vital field, recognize the achievements of women engineers, and inspire future generations to pursue careers in clinical engineering. By spotlighting the work of women, we aim to foster a more inclusive and diverse community within the industry.
The Women in Clinical Engineering project aims to empower and support women in this vital field by creating a platform for networking, mentorship, and professional development. By highlighting the achievements of female clinical engineers and addressing the unique challenges they face, we hope to inspire the next generation of women to pursue careers in clinical engineering. Together, we can foster an inclusive environment that not only promotes gender diversity but also enhances innovation and excellence within the healthcare technology landscape. Through collaboration and shared experiences, we can ensure that women’s voices are heard, valued, and represented in the clinical engineering community.

WICE your Lens, your story
Celebrating women’s contribution through photography.
This initiative seeks to give women clinical engineers global exposition through photographs that will be part of the IFMBE-CED WICE collection and will be shown on the virtual gallery webpage. We aim for people to see and understand the clinical engineering profession around the world and acknowledge women’s contributions, actions, and global efforts. We aim for young girls to get inspired and develop a career in the clinical engineering field, as well as encourage young CE careers.

Voices from the Field
“The WICE project has made it possible to connect with all the incredible and inspiring women leading the way in clinical engineering. Acknowledging the achievements in the field is essential for the development of the porfession.”
“The merit of the WICE project is to capture and bring to light the essence, importance and impact of women’s contributions to CE. The essence is the women’s perspective which takes into account the idea of helping others and the humanitarian aspect of this profession, encouraged by women’s unique aptitudes and skills like holistic thinking, high sense of empathy, multitasking ability, paying attention to details. Diversity, which comes with women to CE is a source of inspiration and innovation, simply progress.”
“The Women In Clinical Engineering (WICE) project book is a remarkable celebration of diversity and innovation in healthcare technology. It showcases inspiring stories of women who are driving advancements in clinical engineering, offering a wealth of knowledge and encouragement for aspiring professionals around the world. This book is a testament to the transformative power of inclusivity and collaboration in shaping the future of healthcare.”
“It is inspiring to learn the stories of women around the world who everyday make the effort to transform Clinical Engineering so it can improve patient care. Everyone of us have faced the challenges that life puts in the way and have grown from it, but at the same time these experiences serve as an example to those around us. It’s important that they know we’re all able to achieve our goals, even if they may seem impossible.”
