Bio-medical Engineering
Our researchers develop innovative technologies for monitoring, diagnostics, therapies, and interventions to address a wide range of diseases and disorders.
Leveraging cutting-edge microelectronics, MEMS, optoelectronics, and microfluidic technologies, the work advances miniature wearable and implantable devices, as well as biomedical computational modelling and bio-signal processing. Key research areas include sensing and diagnostics, neural interfaces, and drug delivery systems, with applications ranging from vital signs monitoring to advanced neural treatments for conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy. Our research builds on a rich legacy of innovation, driving the future of healthcare technology.
