Academic Press Biomedical Engineering Design

Product Description Biomedical Engineering Design presents the design processes and practices used in academic and industry medical device design projects. The first two chapters are an overview of the design process, project management and working on technical teams. Further chapters follow the general order of a design sequence in biomedical engineering, from problem identification to validation and verification testing. The first seven chapters, or parts of them, can be used for first-year and sophomore design classes. The next six chapters are primarily for upper-level students and include in-depth discussions of detailed design, testing, standards, regulatory requirements and ethics. The last two chapters summarize the various activities that industry engineers might be involved in to commercialize a medical device. Review The definitive teaching guide to biomedical design, from inception to completion From the Back Cover <p>No current textbook addresses all the core issues of the biomedical engineering design process. <i>Biomedical Engineering Design</i> covers all of these issues while providing a more relevant, up-to-date, impactful resource for teachers, students and professionals.</p> <p>Appropriate for use either in a two semester senior capstone design course or a lower level course, the first three chapters of Biomedical Enginering Design focus on teams, problem identification, and project selection factors (e.g. design, technical, market, regulatory). An in-depth presentation for this material is unique among existing design texts and has been included because more and more undergraduate BME programs are requiring students to find their own capstone projects. </p> <p>The following six chapters follow the general order of a junior or senior (or both) design sequence in biomedical engineering. The first seven chapters, or a part of them, can be used for lower level students, as freshmen and sophomore design classes are emerging in many biomedical engineering programs. The last chapter, Beyond the Academic Year, summarizes the various commercialization activities that would enable capstone projects to reach the medical device market.</p> About the Author Joe Tranquillo Ph.D. is the Associate Provost for Transformative Teaching and Learning and a founding faculty member of the Biomedical Engineering Department at Bucknell University. At Bucknell he has served as the Director of the Teaching and Learning Center, Director of the Institute for Leadership in Technology and Management and co-founded the Bucknell Innovation Group and KEEN Winter Interdisciplinary Design Experience. Off campus Joe is the past chair of the ASEE Biomedical Engineering Division, co-organizer of the BME-IDEA meetings, founder and inaugural chair of the BMES undergraduate research track. He has delivered intensive teaching workshops on five continents and his work, conducted exclusively with undergraduates, has been featured on the Discovery Channel, TEDx, CNN Health, Google, US News and World Report, and the ABET National Symposium. He is an elected Fellow of ASEE, BMES, AIMBE and NSF Frontiers of Engineering Education. Joe has spent time at Trinity College, Duke University, University of Utah, Stanford University and is an international visiting faculty member at Universidad Catolica de Chile in Santiago, Chile. Jay R. Goldberg, PhD, PE, is Professor of Practice in Biomedical Engineering at Marquette University and the Medical College of Wisconsin. He teaches graduate and undergraduate courses involving new product development and medical device design, including senior capstone design. His experience includes development of new products in urology, orthopedics, GI, and dentistry. Prior to moving into academia, he was Director of Technology and Quality Assurance for Milestone Scientific Inc. (Deerfield, IL), a start-up dental product company.
