I will be third-year chemical engineering student and want to continue my career as a biomedical engineer. I'm willing to discover brain mysteries in future and for now, I need your advice for choosing major difficulty in that area to work on.
Dear Abdul, I suggest you (even on the basis of my personal experience) the field of new bio-chemical compounds for therapy of macular retinal eye. Thanks. Gianluca
Hello Abdul, biological models of human diseases is a good research area, and requires knowledge in nonlinear systems, dynamics and control... all those skills are familiar to a chemical engineer
Hi,
There are plenty of things you can do in Biomedical Engineering. To begin with there is Tissue Engineering which you can do plenty of things such as working on Bioreactors, polymeric hydrogel, tissue engineering scaffolds, cell mechanics, cell modeling, cell membrane modeling, cell membrane dynamics. If you are interested in modeling you can also work on Finite element modeling or even experimental study of the cardiovascular systems (Biofluid mechanics).
There is also a relatively new field of microfluidics and design of organs on a chip to increase the pace of the drug discovery and testing.
These are the beginning, as a chemical engineer you can do plenty of work in the field of biomedical Engineering.
