Biomedical Engineering

Welcome to the department of Biomedical Engineering

The department of Biomedical Engineering (BmE) is at the forefront of groundbreaking research in Chemical Biology, Regenerative Engineering & Materials, and Biomedical Imaging & Modelling. Our primary mission is to educate the next generation of biomedical engineers, who are knowledgeable, socially aware, entrepreneurial and responsible professionals.

To do so, we provide a safe and open environment that challenges students and staff to learn, explore and develop their talents. The close connection science, engineering and education, students and staff, is a key principle of our department where new scientific insights and developments are quickly integrated into education and students learn and are inspired by biomedical challenges.

Research

In our research, we integrate engineering with biology and medicine to develop coherent solutions to medical problems. Our main focus lies on chemical biology, regenerative engineering & materials and biomedical imaging & modelling. Next to these cross-disciplinary areas, we intensify our research by adopting the newest insights in machine learning and artificial intelligence and the broader perspective of immuno-engineering.
