5^th International Biomedical Engineering Conference September 19-20, 2018 Singapore

Biomedical engineering is the implication of engineering theories and concepts to medicine and biology for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. This is apparent in healthcare and different technologies like stem cell engineering and the 3-D printing of biological organs.

Biomedical Device Engineering includes instrumentation for diagnosing, preventing or treating diseases. The study and design of engineering methods without any chemical action in the body can be achieved through the Medical imaging devices.  Photo detectors and Biomedical Chromatography is recently obtaining its importance in the science field through its advancements.

Bioengineering is the medical application of the engineering principles to the biological systems. The practice of Biomedical Engineering has attained its importance in various fields like Neuro-robotics, Tissue mechanics, Clinical and Neural Systems Engineering. The development of Bioengineering advances biology and medicinal practice in life sciences.

Cell engineering exploits the principles and methods of engineering to the complication of cell and molecular biology of both a basic and applied nature. Tissue engineering is a technique which generates living tissue ex vivo for replacement or therapeutic applications through materials development, biochemical controls, cell culture, and genetic engineering. Tissue engineering uses biomaterials and cells to produce new tissues. Stem cells have infused great excitement in the field as a potentially powerful cell source to rebuild tissues.

Biomedical Signal Processing deals with typical implications of signal processing techniques in biomedical signals. This aims for the quantitative analysis of physiological systems and also to extract information from various biological signals to improve diagnosis, therapy and rehabilitation in diseased patients.

Pharmaceutical Formulation is the process in which different chemical substances i.e., active chemical substances will combined together to produce a medical compound i.e., medical drug. This process involves production of drug which characterized by two things: Stability of the product, second Acceptability to the patient. Process engineering target on the design, operation, control, and cumulation of chemical, physical, and biological processes. Process engineering contain a vast range of industries, such as chemical, petrochemical, food, agriculture, pharmaceutical, mineral processing,  software development, and biotechnological industries.

Biomedical Technology is the applied methodology of engineering principles and advanced technology to the biological systems. Biomedical concerns with the problems related to diseases and their treatment that involve wide range of activities from medical designed instruments with developed technologies and methodologies. Biomedical material research is mainly focused on biomedical companies and marketing analysis

Biomechanics is the study of systems and structures of biological organisms from the smallest plants to the largest animals react with external stimuli. In animals, biomechanics often refers to the study of how the skeletal and musculature systems work under different cases. In biomechanics more generally, scientists often try to apply physics and other mathematical based forms of analysis to discover the limits and capabilities of biological systems. Biomaterials are substances that are used in medical devices or in contact with biological systems. Biomaterials use impression from medicine, biology, chemistry, materials science and engineering

Bioinstrumentation is the use of bioelectronics instruments for the recording or transmission of physiological information. Biomedical devices are combination of biology, sensors, interface electronics, microcontrollers, and computer programming, including biology, optics, mechanics, and electronics, chemistry, and computer science. Bioinstrumentation engineers design, frame, test, and manufacture advanced medical instruments and implantable devices into a single, more productive unit.

The hybrid of computer technology to the management of biological information is known as biomedical informatics. The biological and genetic information is used to be gathered, stored, analyzed and integrated by using computers, further used for drug discovery and development related to genes.

Bio Robotics is a collective study of cybernetics, bionics and genetic engineering. Bio Robotics is the use of biological characteristics in living organisms as the knowledge base for developing new robot designs. Biosensors are the devices used in order to determine the concentration of substances and other parameters of biological interest even where they do not utilise a biological system directly. Biosensors basically involve the quantitative analysis of various substances by converting their biological actions into measurable signals.

Wearable Biomedical Sensors & Systems tend to be more enlightened on the market today because they can provide sensory and scanning features which are not seen in regular electronic gadgets, such as biofeedback and tracking of physiological function. Wearable technology will have some form of communications capability and will allow the wearer access to information in real time.  Wearable devices using in the present day include watches, contact lenses, e-textiles and smart fabrics, bracelets, and hearing aid-like devices etc.

Wellbeing Engineering is the plan of wellbeing and security standards identified with natural frameworks including prescription, drug store, dentistry, nursing and so on. It incorporates upkeep and change of wellbeing through determination, avoiding or curing sicknesses by organic applications. Biomedical administrations, Healthcare quality and patient security are the most related parts of the Biomedical Health mind building framework.

Genetic engineering adverts to the direct manipulation of DNA to alter an organism’s characteristics in a proper way. In most cases, use of recombinant DNA adds an extra gene to an organism to alter a trait or to add a new trait. Uses of genetic engineering include imposing the nutritional quality of food, creating pest-resistant crops, and creating infection-resistant livestock.

BCI acquires the brain signals and analyses them to translate into commands which are relayed on to output device. The main objective of BCI is to establish useful function to the people with neuromuscular disorders and also prove useful for rehabilitation after stroke.

Neuroprosthetics are the devices that detect neural activity into command sequences for computers and prostheses. They take some type of signal from brain and convert it into other device control so that it reflects the intensions of user brain. This is becoming the practical reality for the people with motor disorders.
