Research and Training Areas
Cell and Tissue Engineering
Tissue engineering, one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas in biomedical engineering, offers vast potential for changing traditional approaches to meeting many critical health care needs.
Computational Biology
- Bioinformatics
Biomedical research has been revolutionized by technologies that generate high throughput data. Research in bioinformatics is focused on representing and analyzing this informational data.
- Computational Modeling
Hopkins biomedical engineering researchers draw on vast amounts of genetic and biochemical data. They combine knowledge of the human genome with the massive power of modern computers to construct realistic simulations of human organs.
Medical Imaging
The human body can be imaged in scales from a single molecule to the whole body. These images allow physicians not only to see what a patient's organs look like, but also how they are functioning—even at the smallest dimensions.
Molecular Neural Cardiovascular Systems (MNCS)
- Synopsis of MNCS Labs
View researchers and their publications.
- Molecular and Cell Systems
The human body’s 100 trillion cells perform most fundamental life functions. Understanding how molecules interact to produce these functions is a central biological challenge that holds the key to designing effective treatments for combating disease.
- Cardiovascular Systems
Cardiovascular disease poses a major health problem. Researchers from across the disciplines of physiology, biophysics, biomechanics, mathematics, systems identification and computer modeling work collaboratively on a number of cardiovascular research projects.
Neuroscience and Neuroengineering
The brain is perhaps the greatest and most complicated learning system and exercises control over virtually every aspect of behavior. Investigators in this area share a common desire to produce quantitative models of information coding and processing in neural systems.
