Environmental Quotes

I really like the feeling

that what I achieve in
research and development will be helping
someone, whether its
comparing the reliability of non-invasive
blood pressure measuring devices or developing an implantable
wrist joint that will
help people with rheumatoid arthritis use
their hands again.

broad and rapidly expanding field with many areas of specialization. For example, bioinstrumentation engineers design microcomputers for
instruments such as CAT scanners, monitors used in surgery, and sensors that
measure blood chemistry.A biomedical
engineer can focus either on research or
on practical work in a hospital. Those who
work in hospitals are called clinical BMEs.
They oversee the purchase and use of biomedical technology.

Working Conditions
Clinical BME usually work in
teams with other health professionals,
including doctors, nurses, technologists,
and other hospital staff. Specific working conditions for BMEs, such as typical
hours and levels of stress, vary according
to where they are employed. Those who
work in hospitals may have to be on
their feet much of the day, but the job is
not otherwise physically demanding.
