BIOINSTRUMENTATION

BMI 826

Covers advanced topics in the areas of biostatistics and biomedical informatics. Includes reading and discussion of original literature and individual student projects.

BME 603

Various special topics in bioinstrumentation and medical devices.

BME/MEDPHYS 575

Propagation of ultrasonic waves in biological tissues; principles of ultrasonic measuring and imaging instrumentation; design and use of currently available tools for performance evaluation of diagnostic instrumentation; biological effects of ultrasound.

BME 325

Learn and apply the fundamentals of descriptive and inferential statistics to analyze data and present the results in appropriate graphical formats. Emphasis will be on applications commonly encountered in biomedical engineering including t-tests, linear regression, analysis of variance, diagnostic tests, ROC curves, and methods for graphing and presenting data. Examples and practice problems will be drawn from biomedical research. Learn how to analyze data and interpret statistical analysis presented in research papers, and will get practical hands-on experience implementing these tools during class in a computer lab setting.

BMOLCHEM 700

Introduction to methods used in biophysical measurements. Thermodynamics and kinetics are introduced along with the theory and instrumentation used for several complementary biophysical approaches. Hands-on experimentation using state-of-the-art instrumentation and data interpretation.
