¿What is biomedical engineering?
Biomedical Engineering is a new branch of engineering that focuses on the application of engineering principles, methods and techniques applied in an interdisciplinary way to the field of medicine and biology. At present, skills from different engineering disciplines, including electronics and automation, industrial, mechanical, chemical, computer engineering and telecommunications engineering, are applied to the analysis and resolution of problems related to medicine and biology in multidisciplinary teams.
People passionate about new technologies focused on the health and well-being of living beings.
Concerned about finding solutions to health problems and experimenting with a multidisciplinary approach that takes into account social and environmental factors...
The Basque Government has defined 3 smart specialisation priorities related to advanced manufacturing, energy and biosciences (where human health is the main focus of activity). In addition, a series of niches with different levels of maturity linked to the territory have been identified.
You will be able to participate in the eVIDA group, which has extensive previous experience in national and international projects. The results of their research and its application have been published in more than 100 scientific articles in international journals and books and presented at more than 150 international scientific conferences.
