Bio-Medical
Biomedical sciences are a set of sciences applying portions of natural science or formal science, or both, to develop knowledge, interventions, or technology that are of use in healthcare or public health.
Medical Imaging
- Biomedical imaging is a powerful tool for visualizing the internal organs of the body and its diseases. Today’s imaging tools provide unprecedented views of biological processes. Biomedical imaging allows in vivo imaging of biological processes, including changes in receptor kinetics, molecular and cellular signaling, and interactions and the movement of molecules through membranes. Being mostly noninvasive, biomedical imaging offers precise tracking of metabolites that can be used as biomarkers for disease identification, progress, and treatment response.
Biomechanics
- Biomechanics is the study of the structure, function and motion of the mechanical aspects of biological systems, at any level from whole organisms to organs, cells and cell organelles, using the methods of mechanics. Biomechanics is a branch of biophysics.
Biomedical Instrumentation
- Biomedical instrumentation involves the design, development, and application of various instruments and devices used in healthcare settings. These instruments are crucial in diagnosing diseases, monitoring patient vital signs, delivering therapies, and conducting research. They bridge the gap between medicine and technology, enabling healthcare professionals to make accurate diagnoses, provide effective treatments, and enhance patient care.
Bioinformatics
- Bioinformatics is the application of tools of computation and analysis to the capture and interpretation of biological data.Bioinformatics is essential for management of data in modern biology and medicine.The bioinformatics toolbox includes computer software programs such as BLAST and Ensembl, which depend on the availability of the internet
Analysis of genome sequence data, particularly the analysis of the human genome project, is one of the main achievements of bioinformatics to date
Prospects in the field of bioinformatics include its future contribution to functional understanding of the human genome, leading to enhanced discovery of drug targets and individualised therapy
Tissue Engineering
- Tissue engineering is a biomedical engineering discipline that uses a combination of cells, engineering, materials methods, and suitable biochemical and physicochemical factors to restore, maintain, improve, or replace different types of biological tissues.
Biomedical Signal Processing
- Biomedical signal processing involves acquiring and preprocessing physiological signals and extracting meaningful information to identify patterns and trends within the signals. Sources of biomedical signals include neural activity, cardiac rhythm, muscle movement, and other physiological activities.
Healthcare Informatics
- Biomedical informatics uses big data and new ways of presenting it, together with traditional scientific research, to reach across medical disciplines to provide clinical insights, uncover disease, treatment and response patterns and point to new lines of scientific and medical inquiry.
