Genevieve Beart, a former electrical engineering student at the University of Melbourne, has won the national Present Around the World competition which was held in Sydney last month.



Genevieve competed against representatives from SA, QLD, NSW and WA and impressed the judges with both her presentation skills and her achievements from her final year project, BiliDoc – a handheld device that provides a safe, simple and automated home phototherapy treatment process for infants with low-risk jaundice.



Genevieve will now go on to represent Australia in the South Pacific Regional Final which will be held in Singapore later this year.



Congratulations Genevieve, and we wish you best of luck at the South Pacific Regional competition!
