Biomedical engineering is a discipline that applies engineering principles and methods to solve problems in the field of medicine and biology. Its main objective is to improve the quality of life and human health through the design, development and maintenance of medical devices, systems and processes.

The scope of biomedical engineering is broad and covers various areas, some of which include:
Medical devices: Design, development and manufacturing of medical devices such as prostheses, diagnostic imaging equipment (such as MRIs and CT scans), vital signs monitoring devices, among others.

Gene editing with CRISPR: CRISPR-Cas9 technology has revolutionized genetic engineering, allowing precise editing of DNA. This has potential applications in gene therapies to treat genetic diseases, such as hemophilia and muscular dystrophy.

3D bioprinting of tissues and organs: Significant advances have been made in 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs using living cells and biomaterials. This could lead in the future to the manufacture of personalized tissues and organs for transplants, avoiding the need for donors.

3D bioprinting is a revolutionary technique in biomedical engineering that allows the manufacturing of personalized tissues and organs for transplants and research into regenerative treatments.

In recent years, advances in 3D bioprinting have allowed the creation of complex biomimetic structures using living cells and biomaterials. This includes bioprinting tissues such as skin, cartilage, bone and blood vessels.

Researchers are exploring various applications of 3D bioprinting, from creating tissue models to study diseases to developing functional tissues and organs for transplants. Additionally, this technology offers the possibility of creating personalized structures that adapt to the specific needs of each patient, which could improve the effectiveness and compatibility of transplants.

In the biomedical career, we did a project which consisted of a dimmable light source (its voltage could be adjusted) that energized a light bulb with a specific voltage, and this, with the help of a light sensor (LDR), was responsible for turning on the bulb when it was night and turn it off when it was day.

Usan largas capas. Corren por los pasillos del hospital tratando de salvar vidas. Esta podría ser la escena de una de las series sobre la labor de agentes de la salud. La realidad, en esta ocasión, es otra. No usan capas ni corren por el centro hospitalario, pero de ellos depende que importantes tra...

1. Biomedical engineering is a discipline that combines engineering principles with life sciences, such as medicine and biology.

2. One of the most important advances in biomedical engineering was the development of radiography, which enabled physicians to visualize the inside of the human body and diagnose diseases.

3. Biomedical engineering has contributed to the development of medical technologies such as prostheses, diagnostic devices and medical equipment used in hospitals.

4. Biomedical engineers use cutting-edge technologies, such as telemedicine and tele-education, to improve medical care and health education.

5. Biomedical engineering also focuses on developing new technologies to prevent disease and improve people's quality of life, such as sensors used in medical procedures and health monitoring devices.

6. Biomedical engineering has been around for centuries, with examples such as ancient Egyptian prostheses and Leonardo da Vinci's anatomical studies.

7. Biomedical engineers must have a strong background in mathematics, physics, electronics, programming and data analysis, in addition to specific training in biology and medicine.
