A novel approach to physiology education for biomedical engineering students.

It is challenging for biomedical engineering programs to incorporate an indepth study of the systemic interdependence of cells, tissues, and organs into the rigorous mathematical curriculum that is the cornerstone of engineering education. To be sure, many biomedical engineering programs require their students to enroll in anatomy and physiology courses. Often, however, these courses tend to pr...

Developing Media Rich Virtual Learning Material for Biomedical Engineering Education

Not all universities, and especially newly established institutes in biomedical engineering are able to develop and provide a high quality learning content. A distant, open and free learning environment European Virtual Campus for Biomedical Engineering (EVICAB) could provide a solution for that. The learning content has been already developed for EVICAB and is available in different formats, i...
