Introduction to Biomedical Engineering

Volledige vakbeschrijving

Biomedical engineering is a highly interdisciplinary field at the interface between engineering and medicine and biology. In biomedical engineering, principles and methodologies typical of engineering are applied to solve problems from the medical and biological sciences. This course will introduce (some of) the subdisciplines within biomedical engineering, including systems physiology, bio-instrumentation, bio- medical signal analysis and bio-medical imaging. General issues of each of the subdisciplines will be illustrated together with selected examples and neuroscience applications.
