Rene DeBrabander has a diverse work experience in the engineering field. In 2019, they worked at the Johns Hopkins Whiting School of Engineering as an Undergraduate Student Researcher in the Lab for Computational Sensing and Robotics. During this time, they developed a calibration method for the DaVinci robot and tested heat sink solutions for electrical boxes. In 2020, they continued their research work at Johns Hopkins as an Undergraduate Student Researcher in the Neuroengineering and Biomedical Instrumentation Lab. Their responsibilities included designing and manufacturing various devices using CAD software and 3D printing. They also conducted experiments and created prototypes for soft prosthetic fingers. Additionally, they worked as a Volunteer at the Student Support Network, assembling essential household item kits and distributing food to families in need. In 2021 and 2022, Rene had internships at Infinite Biomedical Technologies and Novocure respectively. At Infinite Biomedical Technologies, they conducted characterizations on prosthetic devices and wrote verification documentation. At Novocure, they improved process efficiency and analyzed data using Python scripts. Rene also interned at NASA as an OSTEM Intern in 2022, where they designed test protocols and processed motion capture data. Their most recent work experience is as an R&D Engineer at X-COR Therapeutics in 2023.

Rene DeBrabander completed their high school education at Dulaney High School from 2015 to 2019, earning a High School Diploma. Subsequently, they pursued a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical/Medical Engineering at the Johns Hopkins Whiting School of Engineering starting in 2019 and are expected to graduate in 2023.
