DEFINITION
Biomedical Engineer- Biomedical Engineers are
scientists who study how living things work. As
an example they might study how the brain uses
electrical energy. To become a biomedical
engineer you need to meet certain requirements.
You need high school science(includes biology,
chemistry, and physics). You need four years in
college and more for more advanced research.
Lastly, in order to direct a research project you
need a doctorate.

3 TASKS BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERS DO!

• Clinical engineer (work in hospitals)-Help
  doctors in hospitals choose the right technology
  for patient care.
• Rehabilitation engineers (work with technology
  and computers)-Help individuals with disabilities
  reach toward their maximum potential for an
  enjoyable and productive life.
• Biomedical engineers-make man made materials to
  repair and replace damaged organs.

FAMOUS MAN AND WOMAN IN THIS FIELD.

• MALE
• Jonas Salk- He discovered the vaccine for polio
  in 1955.

• FEMALE
• Helen Buettner- Her main thrust is to
  characterize the kinetics of nerve filopodial
  extension.

FIRST REASERACH PROJECT

• COMPUTATIONAL BIOENGINEERING AND BIOMEDICAL
  IMAGING
• This is imaging that takes pictures of organs to
  check the condition of them. Currently they are
  trying to create better imaging systems. Run by
  Stanley Dunn and Dimitris Metaxas.

SECOND REASEARCH PROJECT

• MOLECULAR SYSTEMS BIOENGINEERING
• They look into genes, structural genomics,
  bioinformatics and metabolic engineering. It is
  run by Charles Roth and Casimir Kulikowskoi.

2 JOBS YOU CAN GET FROM BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

• A job you can get in biomedical engineering, is a
  job being a dental laboratory technician. A
  dental laboratory technician. A dental
  laboratory technician, make and repair dentures,
  crowns, and other dental appliances according to
  dentists prescriptions.

• Another job you can get in biomedical
  engineering, is a job being an orthotist.
  Orthotists provide a range of splints, braces,
  and special footwear to aid movement.

Stanley M Dunn

• Stanley M. Dunn, is a biomedical engineer at
  Rutgers University in New Jersey. He is
  involved, in biomedical image processing,
  computer vision, digital microscopy, radiology,
  and pattern recognition. Dunn is recognized, for
  his seminal studies in digital subtraction
  radiology.
