During a co-op employment, a BEST team member noticed that most efforts from staff revolved around obtaining clear diagnoses for study participants,
which is laborious due to the subjective nature of psychiatric symptoms. Clinicians noted that objective measurements of psychological states could not only improve recruitment methods,
but also track outcomes more objectively, which would generate clearer results from studies.
The MINT team was established with the hope to bridge clinical and social aspects of neuroscience by innovating in objective and accessible diagnostics for psychological conditions.
In recent years, the goal of MINT has shifted from medical applications only to all neurotechnology applications such as brain-controlled automation home, and we develop our own EEG acquisition system.

</div>
<div class="signal-processing content-section-heading">
<h4 class="my-4"><strong>Signal Processing Subteam</strong></h4>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The MINT signal processing team does research on brain signal patterns (EEG), analyze and filter EEG data, and convert data to the right format for machine learning model’s input in Python.
Members also help set up EEG experiments including programming stimuli scripts and record EEG signals.
</p>
</div>
<div class="deep-learning content-section-heading">
<h4 class="my-4"><strong>Deep Learning Subteam</strong></h4>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The MINT deep learning team creates deep learning applications and assist in the overall project by building deep learning models.
Members do research about various models, determine the model that best fits each scenario, and work with large amounts of data to generate the appropriate results.
</p>
</div>
<div class="software content-section-heading">
<h4 class="my-4"><strong>Software Subteam</strong></h4>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The MINT software team consists of five subteams: Backend Product, Backend Infra/MLOps, Backend Simulation, Frontend Data Visualization, and Frontend Product. Members contribute by constructing the MINT website, developing applications to support current projects, visualizing data gathered by the signal processing team, and building interactive demos.
</p>
</div>
<div class="neuroscience content-section-heading">
<h4 class="my-4"><strong>Neuroscience Research Subteam</strong></h4>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The MINT neuroscience research team focuses on advancing neurotechnology research by reviewing literature, analyzing data, and writing research proposals. The team plans/conducts experiments while working with other teams to gather data. They play a huge role in the publication of research papers to help MINT share open-source neurotechnology research with the wider scientific community. </p>
</div>
<div class="ux content-section-heading">
<h4 class="my-4"><strong>UX/UI Subteam</strong></h4>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The MINT UX/UI team assists the software team in creating interactive and dynamic frontends to make sure that the interfaces are user-centric and easy to use. The team completes the full UI/UX design process with tools like Figma to design components and user interfaces. They also research and compare existing tools to those MINT is developing to help guide the creation of user-friendly software.
</p>
</div>
<div class="electrical content-section-heading">
<h4 class="my-4"><strong>Electrical Subteam</strong></h4>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The MINT electrical team is designing a custom made PCB for reading in data.
Members work on hardware and/or firmware for the PCB to communicate between firmware/hardware and to process brain wave signals and control the PCB.
For example, the creation of a cricut design that incorporates the PCB, receiving electrode, power source, incooprating microcontroller and an avenue of transmission of data.
Members work closely with the signal processing subteam to minimize noise and record the desired data.
</p>
</div>
<div class="mechanical content-section-heading">
<h4 class="my-4"><strong>Mechanical Subteam</strong></h4>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The MINT mechanical team utilizes computer aided design to create a headset that will enable the connection of electrodes to the patient’s head,
carefully considering the ergonomics of the patients, cost, and quality of the mechanical EEG headset.

<h2 class="mb-4">Mentees</h2>
<p class="lead mb-5">
The UBC MINT Mentorship program equips 1st year engineering students with the necessary technical and professional skills that will allow them to excel throughout their academic and professional life.
The program involves a series of workshops that involve the development of critical technical and professional skills that will train each individual to be able to join a UBC MINT project team at the end of the program while also gaining a better understanding of the various engineering disciplines to assist them in their placement decision.
Mentees also work alongside different mentors in various project teams. This involves mentees shadowing their mentor, learning about their projects and goals while also completing small tasks when appropriate.
