Researchers pace embryonic heart with laser
Love, exercise and, new research shows, an infrared laser can make a heart beat faster.
Scientists at Case Western Reserve University and Vanderbilt University found that pulsed light can pace contractions in an avian embryonic heart, with no apparent damage to the tissue. The work, “Optical pacing of the embryonic heart,” will be published in the advanced online issue of Nature Photonics on Aug. 15, 2010.
According to the scientists, this non-invasive device may prove an effective tool in understanding how environmental factors that alter an embryo’s heart rate lead to congenital defects. It may also lead to investigations of cardiac electrophysiology at the cellular, tissue and organ levels, and possibly the development of a new generation of pacemakers.

Hello friends
I have started a network for biomedical engineers that is the place where you can interact with the fellow biomedical engineers,you can have chat with the fellow biomedical engineers
- you can discuss your academics,your status of biomedical.
- ask questions from various experienced person who have joined the industry
- establish references with the people
- write your own blogs
- make groups of your college
- make a job statement to the company concerned
for all these facilities you just need to sign up yourself at

Biomedical engineering training is the most crucial part of his/her life
This is because of the fact that there are no laboratories in the colleges so the students have to look out through the market,industry for getting the best practical knowledge as an engineer
This article is not about criticizing it is about what steps to be implemented to get the best out of what you have.
STEP1
First of all you should convince yourself that whatever training you are doing is best among your fellow classmates and you would be learning something
