ABOUT US

ViTAL is an interdisciplinary collaborative of Northeastern University students from all academic backgrounds united around healthcare innovation, growing together to develop in knowledge, connections, and skills outside of the classroom.

Welcome to ViTAL, Northeastern's healthcare innovation core. We are an interdisciplinary organization that aims to inspire innovation, entrepreneurship, and exploration of non-traditional paths in healthcare. Students have the opportunity to come together with their shared interest in healthcare, growing their knowledge and network. The name 'ViTAL' embodies our mission: to empower the 'i', the impact each individual can make in healthcare. Our events include speaker panels, social events, and collaborations with other Northeastern organizations. Students from all academic backgrounds have the opportunity to develop their professional skills, participate in volunteering around the Boston area, network with prominent figures in healthcare, and connect with other members in the ViTAL community. We also promote education of various healthcare topics through Medium articles and our podcast, as well as offer the opportunity to practice these skills through our consulting team, ViTAL Ventures Consulting (VVC), and our annual case competition, Husky Health Innovation Challenge (HHIC).
