Biomedical Engineering

Biomedical Engineering
Biomedical engineering is the design, development, and testing of apparatuses and technology for the advancement of biological systems. By itself, it is interdisciplinary and integrative. It brings together a breadth of engineering disciplines to study problems that otherwise cannot be tackled with traditional biological or medical approaches....

Physics & Biophysics

Physics & Biophysics
Proteins, DNA, and other molecules inside our bodies are intricate molecular machines that perform extremely delicate procedures in a synchronized manner. The ultra-fine movements of molecules can govern the function of an entire cell or even organism. For example, in cystic fibrosis, a mutation in one ion channel protein causes defective chloride transport and thus...

Microfluidics

Microfluidics
Microfluidics is the science of manipulating fluid in channels that are on the micron, or one-millionth of a meter, scale. Performing laboratory procedures and tests at these scales allows for significant increases in speed and versatility. We have developed innovations in rapid prototyping, microfluidic mixing, and sample handling that speed the time of biological and...

Medicine

Medicine
An in-depth understanding of human physiology, disease, and treatment is critical in developing innovative medical tools. At the DNA Medicine Institute, the translation between cutting edge technology and real-world applications is intuitive. There is nothing being developed at the Institute that lacks the direct potential to impact lives and patient care....
