About the internship: – The selected students would work with IIT Madras faculty on mini-projects during the course of the internship.
Who can apply: – The candidates pursuing third year of B.E./B.Tech./B.Sc. (Engg)/ Integrated M.E/M.Tech. programme, first year of ME/M.Tech/M.Sc./M.A, MBA with outstanding academic background in terms of high ranks in university examinations are encouraged to apply.
A handheld optical scanner to detect skin cancer, “bladeless” cataract surgery, and an amazing new headache treatment are among the Top 10 Medical Innovations for 2013 selected by a panel of Cleveland Clinic scientists and researchers.
A surprising government program also made the list, unveiled at the clinic’s Medical Innovation Summit. To qualify, a breakthrough had to offer a major improvement in patient care, have a high probability of success, and must either be on the market now or be close to being introduced.
Here’s a look at the remarkable therapies and game-changing technologies expected to dramatically reshape healthcare—and save lives—over the next year:
Biomedical engineering research has advanced by leaps and bounds in recent years, but the field still falls short of most other types of engineering in one key respect: engineers’ ability to model their work.
With the enormous complexity involved in even the simplest of living organisms, developed over billions of years of evolution, true models tend to fall well short of the wide array of interactions taking place within an organism, making it much more difficult to rely on computers to expedite engineering research and development.
Bangalore: The Defence Bioengineering & Electromedical Laboratory (DEBEL) here has set up a new technical facility with advanced test facilities and analytical equipment for its Research and Development programmes on cutting edge technologies in life support systems and biomedical devices.
The facilities include a hydrostatic simulator to test prototypes/equipment at depths of 300 metres; a dynamic test centrifuge to handle pneumatic prototypes with specific payloads; a high altitude simulation chamber for human applications and advanced characterisation and testing facilities for technical textiles developed for military applications.
