Instrumentation and Measurement

Types of Research

This research area involves the design and development of sensors, instruments, and measurement systems that can accurately and reliably measure the biological parameters of biomolecules, cells, tissues, and organisms. Researchers in this field work to develop new technologies for imaging, spectroscopy, and other analytical techniques, with the goal of improving our understanding of biological systems and developing new diagnostic and therapeutic tools. The instrumentation and measurement research area is essential for advancing the field of biological engineering, as it enables researchers to obtain accurate and precise data on biological systems, which can then be used to develop new models and predictive tools.
