The Bioengineering program at CMC-Vellore is unique in India in offering Postgraduate engineering education in a medical institution. It imparts training in engineering analysis, design and prototyping within a multi- faceted medical institution. Its aim is to bring some of the best global practices in interdisciplinary biomedical engineering R&D to address healthcare problems inIndia. Bioengineering at CMC
Bioengineering Involves basic science and applied research in medical instrumentation, prostheses, mathematical analysis of physiological processes, biomechanics of musculoskeletal
systems, rehabilitation engineering etc. Bioengineering has engineering at its core, and includes the disciplines of physics, mechanics, electronics, and computational methods applied to
physiology and medicine. The Department
The Bioengineering department at CMC-Vellore works closely with several other departments in CMC and significant work has been in Physiological Measurements, Prostheses and Assistive Devices, Electrodiagnostics, Neuorehabilitation technology etc. The department has electronics and mechanical fabrication and testing labs as well as embedded and GUI software development facilities. Devices developed in the department are in use in clinical departments and research labs in CMC and other institutions. The Bioengineering department at
CMC is a participant in a three institution M.Tech. (Clinical Engineering) and Ph.D. (Medical Devices) initiative, jointly run by IIT-Madras, SCTIMST-Trivandrum and CMC-Vellore. The
admissions for those programmes are advertised separately.

Pinunta Nittayacharn (Petch) Research Assistant BioNEDD Laboratory (www.bionedd.org) Department of Biomedical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Mahidol University,Thailand
Philips and Manipal University have been working together on various healthcare research projects since 2004. Manipal University with the support of Philips healthcare has created a research lab in the area of imaging at Radiodiagnosis department, Kasturba Medical College, Manipal. This joint research activity has transformed into a research lab known as Medical Imaging Research Suite (MIRS) where post graduate interns, research students, radiologists and engineers work together towards healthcare innovation.
Support from Manipal University for this joint research will be in the form of research scholarship for 3 years as per the University guidelines. In addition, the candidate will also be eligible for leave and support for the conferences as per the University guidelines. Philips will support towards the clinical science keys for the research development and also the expenses of the candidate for training in the area of MR pulse programming at Europe.
Nine PhD Positions in the Dutch Research Consortium ‘Language in Interaction’
We are looking for highly motivated PhD candidates to enrich a unique consortium of researchers that aims to unravel the neurocognitive mechanisms of language at multiple levels. The goal is to understand both the universality and the variability of the human language faculty from genes to behavior
