biomedical engineering
Medical device design
Biomedical engineering applies engineering principles to medicine and biology.
The field spans medical device design, tissue engineering, prosthetics, medical imaging systems, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
A biomedical engineer might develop artificial organs, design diagnostic equipment, or create software for analyzing patient data.
She studied biomedical engineering before working on implantable cardiac devices.
