The activities of the Center for Biomedical Engineering span four departments within the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Biomedical engineering is one of the newest specialties within engineering. Engineers are increasingly involved with the development of innovative methods for diagnosis and treatment of diseases and injuries. The subjects of solid and fluid mechanics, reaction kinetics, materials, heat transfer, statistics and informatics, signal and image processing, systems analysis, and control all have important applications in biomedical engineering. Faculty associated with the Center have research interests that include the application of mechanics to musculoskeletal and cardiovascular systems, the development of computational methods to analyze genomic data, biomaterials, studies in the areas of cellular, molecular and tissue bioengineering and medical imaging. Please see individual faculty home pages for further information.
In addition to research, the center serves as a resource for students seeking information about biomedical engineering programs, for companies seeking to hire engineers or become involved in collaborative projects, and for other outside agencies. The center sponsors a seminar series, and publishes brochures and reports on biomedical engineering.
