They also evaluate the effectiveness of treatments. Their work is extremely important for many hospital departments and the functions they carry out are wide ranging. For example, they may work on medical conditions, such as cancer, diabetes, AIDS, malaria, food poisoning or anaemia, or carry out tests for emergency blood transfusions or to see if someone has had a heart attack. Biomedical scientists can work in three areas: infection sciences; blood sciences; and cellular sciences. Infection sciences include: •medical microbiology - identification of micro-organisms causing disease and their antibiotic treatment; •virology - identification of viruses, associated diseases and monitoring the effectiveness of vaccines. Blood sciences include: •clinical chemistry - analysis of body fluids and toxicology studies; •transfusion science - determination of donor/recipient blood compatibility, ensuring blood banks are sufficient; •haematology - form...

...John Smith Dr. Madaro University Physics I Spring 2014 Biomedical Engineering and the Future of Modern Medicine I have always been interested in math and science, but my interest developed into a fascination this year in physics class. I enjoyed being able to apply all of the laws and theories that we learned in class to real-world situations. I liked being able to figure out the distance an object traveled just by knowing the acceleration and speed, finding the vertical and horizontal components of a force, and solving for the coefficient of friction of a surface. I loved that every concept seemed to build on the one before it, and how they all helped me understand the world in a way I never had before. Whenever I think about my future, what I want to study, and how I want to make a living, I always think of engineering- a career that would allow me to develop this fascination with the way the world works and to apply my knowledge to a project that could help improve peoples' lives. I want to go into this field to develop technology that could help cure disease or improve the quality of life of those with serious medical conditions. The concepts of Physics play a crucial part in the everyday work of Biomedical Engineers, specifically in the invention of prosthetic limbs, artificial organs, and improved hearing aids. "The first artificial limbs were stiff and did not have joints that bent like real arms, hands, or legs" (Woods 40). The invention of the artificial limbs...

...plainly states the goal of a true leader. A true leader has a goal, a vision as Bennis put it. The task set before that leader is to make the vision come true (a reality) by any means necessary. There are certain qualities needed to make sure the vision is successfully turned into a reality. Hard work, dedication, and perseverance are the three main qualities among many that act as a catalyst to the leader’s vision. When these qualities are put into action, the impossible becomes the possible and as Warren Bennis put it, the vision becomes a reality. One obstacle, that in my life I classified as the impossible, was attending the first charter school of Gwinnett County, The Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, & Technology. Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology (GSMST) is a charter school that was established in 2007. It focuses on the higher end of the academic spectrum in providing exceptional students with challenging curriculum and extensive leadership responsibilities in order to prepare the students for their next step in education. The students that attend are pulled out of their home high schools to complete their high school studies. Essentially, the students at GSMST were thrown together in a melting pot that literally forced the students to blend and accept each other’s lifestyles. We have students from all over the word that attend GSMST with different lifestyles, attitudes, and...

...Fundamentals of Speech John Kastner, Instructor Speech #1 Demonstrative Speech Prepare a 4-6 minute Demonstrative Speech. Visual aids are recommended for this speech. Remember all of the different types of visual aids so that you might use more creativity. You can use charts or graphs that show the popularity of your topic, images that show various ways to make it, videos or cartoons that show it in use, etc. In addition to your props, power point slides that show lists of ingredients, charts, and other images are helpful. As with all of your speeches, you must turn in a typed outline at the time that you deliver your speech. Objectives: You will deliver a 4 - 6 minute speech that informs your audience about how to do something. The explanation should be clear and concise. You need to actually demonstrate what you are explaining as you explain it. If, for instance, you are going to tell us how to make a cake, then you really need to bring the ingredients, really mix them together, really grease the pan and really pour the batter into the pan. Obviously, you can't bring an oven and bake the cake, but do all the steps that you can in baking a cake and then bring in the final product to show us what it should look like when finished. We should be able to do whatever it is you are demonstrating to us following your speech. Part of your grade for this speech will be based on whether you have demonstrated so clearly that we could turn around and do it...

...Question 4: If you were member of ABD's management team, what countries would you recommend targeting first? As a manager, you would need to justify your recommendation. A good approach is to investigate key characteristics of specific countries via globalEDGE or similar Web sites. Answer: First of all, to produce advanced biomedical devices lucratively requires high technology, biomedical engineering services at enough level, to be independent about work in process and raw materials, sufficient control-reporting, coordination and r&d activities very well. Advanced medical devices are produced by finite number companies. Accordingly products of these production is difficult and costly. Countries which have not these features must obtain the products via import. At first, we should assign the countries which have not capacity and technology to produce these products. We should focus on underdeveloped or the developing countries due to the features such as low levels of productivity, technology, capacity, insufficient information education and materials about sector. ABD's management team can export advenced biomedical devices to Azerbajian, Nakhichevan, Iraq, Algeria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia etc. And it may use Turkey as the place of manufacturing because of Turkey is in the region which is near these countries and has many advantages about technology, sufficient capacity as regards these countries. ABD can use the opportunity of location of Turkey for manufacturing, in this way it...

...Unit 1 Research Paper 1 Injectable Tissue Engineering Brand Zae GS1140 Injectable Tissue Engineering Introduction Every year more than700,000 Americans undergo a form of joint replacement surgery. The procedure-in which a knee or a hip is replaced with an artificial implant-is highly invasive, and many patients delay said surgery for as long as they can. A doctor by the name of Jennifer Elisseeff , a biomedical engineer at Johns Hopkins University, hopes to change that with a simple and quick procedure that does away with surgery entirely. Dr. Elisseeff and her colleagues have developed a way to inject joints with specially designed mixtures of polymers, cells, and growth stimulators that solidify and form healthy tissue. This form of technology can eliminate the need for many expensive and dangerous surgeries. Surgeries involving muscle development, the cardio vascular system, and even limb repair after a traumatic incident. This form of technology can improve our health care system dramatically and open new windows of opportunity for new forms of medicine. Even the possibility for new cures for diseases that we currently fight every day such as cancer and possibly even HIV, eliminating the need for long and expensive treatments. As well as repairing worn or damaged tissue, this form of engineering can also be used in the future for growing new organs or limbs to replace old damaged or missing ones. If a patient is in need of a new heart...

...controversial to the public. Many people believe this kind of research is unnatural, and should be stopped before it can start. While others are very open to the idea, believing it can help in many aspects in human development and daily life. Technology has advanced quickly, from bioengineered skin to genomics, which is the custom building of DNA or RNA strands. Humans need to be able to understand the pros and cons of technology taking over our lives as well as our bodies. There are both benefits and complications with bioengineering and singularity, and both are taken with precise consideration by scientists. Benefits of biomedical engineering and singularity With medical engineering people are afraid of inserting objects into their bodies but what they don’t realize is the advantages that could happen. There are multiple possible benefits of biomedical engineering and singularities. The main singularity is medical benefits. In Progress Accelerates Exponentially, Kurzweil...

...Tissue engineering is a branch of biomedical engineering that focuses on isolating and amplifying the natural ability of the human body to heal injuries. The paradigm of tissue engineering is composed of three major components: a tissue scaffold; biological factors; and cells. Among these three components, the source of the cells used in the medical device is the largest source of controversy. Not only can the origin of the cells affect the funding of an engineering project, but it can even lead to the overall rejection of the project by society if they feel that the source is morally objectionable. This essay will explore two common sources of pluripotent cells used in tissue engineering, the laws that are set in place in accordance with...
