The Favaloro University initiated the academic path in biomedical sciences in Buenos Aires, Argentina. As a very promising area, the biomedical world offers the integration between several domains, complementing medicine with engineering topics. The profile of the graduated students proved to be very versatile, allowing their instantaneous incorporation to the competitive market in this vast field...
An innovative biomedical engineering (BME) laboratory course was developed to integrate wireless biotechnology with a hands on learning approach. In recent years the need for biomedical engineers in research and industry has increased dramatically. This requires novel strategies for training BME students in both engineering principles and clinical applications. BME students should be prepared with...
GLUCOSIM is an educational software package that simulates blood glucose and insulin dynamics in healthy individuals and patients with type 1 diabetes. It is being used to assist biomedical and chemical engineering students in visualizing the dynamic variations in blood glucose concentration in response to external variations such as food consumption and insulin administration. A nutritional database...
A simulation-based training resource was developed for electrophysiology. The resource focuses on computational modeling of cellular bioelectric activity and is called the interactive cell modeling tool. iCell can be used as a simulation-based teaching and learning tool for electrophysiology. The site consists of JAVA models of various cardiac cells and neurons, and provides simulation data of their...
The technique of visual reality has got a rapid development in medicine field, especially in medical education field. With its advantage of intuition and flexibility, VR has gained agreement widely. In this paper, the concept, category, application will be introduced. Author also gives some suggestion to improve the applications of VR technique in medicine field
The design and implementation of Web-based examination system constructed by PHP and MySQL is presented in this paper. Three primary parts, including students', teachers' and administrators', are introduced and analyzed in detail. Initial application has demonstrated the system's feasibility and reasonability
Virtual reality technology has great potential to benefit the practice of neurosurgery. Standard 2-dimensional radiologic data of the brain can be transformed into a 3-dimensional virtual object which closely resembles the actual brain, and allows the neurosurgeon to interact it in a realistic manner. By incorporating haptics technology, simulated tactile sensations can also be conveyed to the user...
