1. What Is Biomedical Engineering?

Frontiers of Biomedical Engineering (BENG 100) Professor Saltzman introduces the concepts and applications of biomedical engineering, providing an overview of the course syllabus, reading materials for lecture and labs and grading logistics. Various pictures are shown to highlight the current application of biomedical engineering technologies in daily life (eg. chest x-ray, PET scan, operating room, gene chip, transport). Next, living standards and medical technologies of the past and present are compared to point out the impact of biomedical engineering as well as areas for improvement in the field. Finally, Professor Saltzman draws references from the poem "London Bridge" to illustrate some societal issues in making materials and devices in biomedical engineering. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

Biomedical Science - UCLan

Biomedical Science involves the study of the scientific basis of health and disease and plays an important role in modern medical care. The biomedical scientist fulfils a pivotal function within the health care system, as he or she is responsible for analysing and interpreting the various causes of disease. To do so, the biomedical scientist requires knowledge not only of basic scientific areas such as chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology and physiology, but also of specialised areas involved in various disease states. The UK delivered course is accredited by both the Health Professions Council (HPC) and the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS) as a preliminary qualification for employment in hospital pathology laboratories. The course is primarily designed for scientists wishing to work in diagnostic and research laboratories in hospitals and other medical institutions. However, it will also equip you well for work in toxicological and forensic laboratories, as well as those wishing to pursue a higher degree, or for a career in marketing and management within biomedical related industries. A year-long placement (sandwich) route is also available, and may be beneficial for those students seeking state registration with the IBMS and HPC in pursuit of a career as a biomedical scientist. In addition, students will have the opportunity to undertake studies for one semester in an American university. If you require top-up for a current non-accredited degree it is possible ...

2. What Is Biomedical Engineering? (cont.)

Frontiers of Biomedical Engineering (BENG 100) Class begins with discussion of students' answers to the two questions given as assignment in the previous lecture. Professor Saltzman talks about the basic concept of biomedical engineering and two separate aspects of it: gaining better understanding of human physiology and developing ways to improve human health. He then introduces the term homeostasis, and talks about parameters that are involved in controlling this state. Finally, the structure of the phospholipid is discussed and how it constitutes the cell membrane. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Biomedical Engineering Today 08:00 - Chapter 2.

24. Biomedical Engineers and Cancer

Frontiers of Biomedical Engineering (BENG 100) Professor Saltzman uses cancer diagnosis and treatment as an example to demonstrate the some applications of biomedical engineering technologies and methods. Some issues involved in cancer treatment, such as tumor angiogenesis, radiation sensitivity, drug localization, and cancer stem cells are mentioned. Next, he describes the phases (I-IV), in compliance to guidelines enforced by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which a new drug compound must go through to gain approval prior to public distribution/sale. Finally, Professor Saltzman draws attention to the areas that biomedical engineers may contribute to, to improve this process. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Introduction to Cancer 03:56 - Chapter 2.
