Career Conversation with Nicole (Telleri) Simpson
As part of our continuing "Career Conversations" series, we had another great Skype "visit" from a former student, Nicole (Telleri) Simpson, who is now working at Heartware in Framingham, MA. It’s an exciting time to be a Verification and Validation (V&V) engineer at Heartware, as they start a new clinical trial for a smaller, improved Ventricular Assist Device.
