Transcript: Job Title Biomedical engineers Life scientists Medical scientists Bioengineers Duties They enjoy a range of possible duties, including the design and development of artificial organs, modeling of physical processes, development of blood sensors and other physiologic sensors, design of therapeutic strategies and devices for injury recovery, development and refinement of imaging techniques and equipment, development of advanced detection systems, testing of product performance, and optimal lab design. Responsibilities Bioengineers specialize in a variety of functional areas, including bioinstrumentation, biomechanics, biomaterials, clinical engineering, medical imaging, rehabilitation engineering and systems physiology. The following specialties are integral to, and interdependent with, each other. All combine engineering principles and methodologies in solving medical challenges. Common work activities Many do research, along with life scientists, chemists, and medical scientists, to develop and evaluate systems and products for use in the fields of biology and health, such as artificial organs, prostheses (artificial devices that replace missing body parts), instrumentation, medical information systems, and health management and care delivery systems. Work Enviroment Bioengineers are employed in universities, in industry, in hospitals, in research facilities of educational and medical institutions, in teaching, and in government regulatory agencies. They are not limited to geographical locations and can work mostly anywhere. Specialization They specialized by combining biology and medicine with engineering, biomedical engineers develop devices and procedures that solve medical and health-related problems. Many do research, along with life scientists, chemists, and medical scientists, to develop and evaluate systems and products for use in the fields of biology and health, such as artificial organs, prostheses (artificial devices that replace missing body parts), instrumentation, medical information systems, and health management and care delivery systems.

Transcript: Tissue engineering According to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, biomedical engineers earned an average hourly wage of $40.76, which amounted to an average annual income of $84,780, as of May 2010. The top ten percent of biomedical engineers made upwards of $126,990 per year, while the bottom ten percent made $49,690 or less per year. The highest-paying industry was semiconductor and other electronic components manufacturing, which had an average annual income of $111,480 at that same time. Genetic engineering 1.The use of artificial tissues, organs, or organ components to replace damaged or absent parts of the body. 2.The use in engineering or industry of biological organisms or processes. What is the Average Salary for Bio engineers? What Do Bio engineer's produce? Bioengineering Bioengineering Genetic engineering, recombinant DNA technology, genetic modification/manipulation (GM) and gene splicing are terms that apply to the direct manipulation of an organism's genes. Genetic engineering is different from traditional breeding, where the organism's genes are manipulated indirectly. Genetic engineering uses the techniques of molecular cloning and transformation to alter the structure and characteristics of genes directly. Genetic engineering techniques have found success in numerous applications. Some examples are in improving crop technology (not a medical application per se; see BioSystems Engineering), the manufacture of synthetic human insulin through the use of modified bacteria, the manufacture of erythropoietin in hamster ovary cells, and the production of new types of experimental mice such as the oncomouse (cancer mouse) for research. Tissue engineering is a major segment of Biotechnology. One of the goals of tissue engineering is to create artificial organs (via biological material) for patients that need organ transplants. Biomedical engineers are currently researching methods of creating such organs. Researchers have grown solid jawbones and trachea's from human stem cells towards this end. Several artificial urinary bladders actually have been grown in laboratories and transplanted successfully into human patients.Bioartificial organs, which use both synthetic and biological components, are also a focus area in research, such as with hepatic assist devices that use liver cells within an artificial bioreactor construct.
