Please check the website regularly. 201200220 Nanomedicine Nanomedicine is one of the most dynamic fields, which holds a high potential to make a huge impact on the medical science. Nanomedicine is in general defined as medical applications of nanotechnology. In recent years, nanotechnologies have been applied for drug delivery, imaging/diagnostics, biosensing, in vitro diagnostics, and tissue engineering. One of the largest areas for nanomedicine is the drug delivery/targeting. Conventional medicine, which are either administered orally or with injections, are not always successful for achieving the desired therapeutic effects but rather show high side effects. Therefore, novel drug delivery systems are highly crucial to develop, using which the drugs can be specially delivered at the targeted site or even to the specific cell types.

  • Introducing Bionanotechnology Into Undergraduate Biomedical Engineering
    AC 2009-504: INTRODUCING BIONANOTECHNOLOGY INTO UNDERGRADUATE BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING Aura Gimm, Duke University J. Aura Gimm is Assistant Professor of the Practice and Associated Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Duke University. She teaches courses in biomaterials, thermodynamics/kinetics, engineering design, and a new course in bionanotechnology. Dr. Gimm received her S.B. in Chemical Engineering and Biology from MIT, and her Ph.D. in Bioengineering from UC-Berkeley. Page 14.802.1 Page © American Society for Engineering Education, 2009 Introducing Bionanotechnology in Undergraduate Biomedical Engineering Abstract As a part of the NSF-funded Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education Program, we have developed and implemented a new upper division elective course in Biomedical Engineering titled “Introduction to Bionanotechnology Engineering”. The pilot course included five hands- on “Nanolab” modules that guided students through specific aspects of nanomaterials and engineering design in addition to lecture topics such as scaling effects, quantum effects, electrical/optical properties at nanoscale, self-assembly, nanostructures, nanofabrication, biomotors, biological designing, biosensors, etc. Students also interacted with researchers currently working in the areas of nanomedicine, self-assembly, tribiology, and nanobiomaterials to learn first-hand the engineering and design challenges. The course culminated with research or design proposals and oral presentations that addressed specific engineering/design issues facing nanobiotechnology and/or nanomedicine. The assessment also included an exam (only first offering), laboratory write-ups, reading of research journal articles and analysis, and an essay on ethical/societal implications of nanotechnology, and summative questionnaire. The course exposed students to cross-disciplinary intersections that occur between biomedical engineering, materials science, chemistry, physics, and biology when working at the nanoscale.

  • Engineering Solutions for Health: Biomedical Engineering Research Strategy March 2015
    Engineering Solutions for Health: Biomedical Engineering Research Strategy March 2015 Biomedical engineering is the application of engineering tools and approaches to advance knowledge and solve problems in animal and human biology, medicine and health care. Engineering Solutions for Health: Biomedical Engineering Research Strategy Biomedical engineering has dramatically advanced health care and health- related research over the past half-century for both human and animal populations, and will have an even greater influence in the future. High- quality health care is the foundation of a healthy society: health is at the core of quality of life and also drives social and economic development. Biomedical engineering makes important differences every day to individuals by extending their lives, ensuring the safety of their food and water supplies, improving their quality of life, promoting independence, and providing more effective options for front-line health care professionals. The University of Calgary has a strong track record This strategy will target health problems with of great accomplishments in biomedical engineering, the highest burden in terms of decreased quality based on making significant investments in this area of life, financial cost, mortality and morbidity to build a solid foundation of truly interdisciplinary — particularly cardiovascular disease, cancer, research and training.

  • What Is the Difference Between Biomedical Science and Biomedical Engineering?
    What is the difference between Biomedical Science and Biomedical Engineering? The short answer is that Biomedical engineers take and use more math! There is, however, more to it than that. The two fields are very similar in that they are both transdisciplinary and apply scientific principles to healthcare. The chart below will help explain some of the differences: BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING Looks at ‘What’ ‘Why’ and/or ‘How’ something Looks at ‘So what?’ ‘What can we do?’ ‘How happens. can we make something?’ Investigation-oriented Problem-solving oriented Scientists are generally more interested in the Engineers are generally more about the “Research” of “Research and Development.” “Development” in “Research and Development,” though there is also an element of research, if you'd like to pursue that. Career Paths include Career paths include: Research at the federal level, in institutions of Research to develop and evaluate systems and higher education, and in the private sector.

  • Biomedical Engineering and Medicine Dual Degree
    BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING AND MEDICINE DUAL DEGREE PROGRAM Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) Degree in Biomedical Engineering and Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) Degree in Medicine DEGREE INFORMATION Program Admission Deadlines: Fall: November 1 Spring: No Admit Summer: No Admit Minimum Total Hours: 90/ Program Level: Doctoral/Professional CIP Code: 14.0501 Dept Code: ECH Program (Major/College): EBI EN CONTACT INFORMATION Colleges: Engineering/Medicine Departments: Chemical & Biomedical Engineering; Medicine Contact Information: www.grad.usf.edu PROGRAM INFORMATION The objectives of the M.D./Ph.D. program are: 1) produce highly trained professionals who can work effectively in the area of Biomedical Translational Research, more specifically, Engineer‐Physicians who can conduct research in a Biomedical engineering area that addresses a significant clinical problem, and bring that research through to clinical application; and 2) provide an integrated educational experience leading to both the M.D. degree and the Ph.D. (BME) degree. In order to accomplish the first objective, advances in health care increasingly involve the application of emerging science and technology (i.e., engineering) to clinical problems, including problems in diagnostic treatment and the healthcare system itself. Unlike more basic research that often aims to increase science and technology knowledge in itself, translational research seeks to specifically address the science and technology needed to solve problems with the end goal of creating an actual application or product (of course, adding new significant knowledge in the process). In order to conduct effective biomedical translational research, the investigator must be trained in both clinical science (i.e., the M.D. degree) and engineering (specifically, Biomedical Engineering).
