Invertebrate models for biomedical research, testing, and education.
Invertebrate animals have been used as medicinals for 4,000 years and have served as models for research and teaching since the late 1800s. Interest in invertebrate models has increased over the past several decades as the research community has responded to public concerns about the use of vertebrate animals in research. As a result, invertebrates are being evaluated and recognized as models f...
متن کاملBiomedical Engineering Education and Research in Hungary
Biomedical Engineering is a relatively new interdisciplinary science. This paper presents the biomedical engineering activity, which is carried out at Budapest University of Technology and Economics and its partner institutes. In the first part the main goals and the curriculum of the Biomedical Engineering Education Program (BMEEP) is presented. The second part of the paper summarizes the most...

The Mueller matrix polarimetry is a useful technique for characterization and imaging of biological materials and turbid medium. The recoded transmitted Mueller matrix elements are highly intensity and wavelength dependent. We derived the sixteen Mueller matrix images out of forty-nine polarization configurations for characterization of the polystyrene sphere of 0.2 to 20 μm illuminated with po...
متن کاملOf mice and models: improved animal models for biomedical research.
The ability to engineer the mouse genome has profoundly transformed biomedical research. During the last decade, conventional transgenic and gene knockout technologies have become invaluable experimental tools for modeling genetic disorders, assigning functions to genes, evaluating drugs and toxins, and by and large helping to answer fundamental questions in basic and applied research. In addit...
متن کاملDomestic animals as models for biomedical research.
Domestic animals are unique models for biomedical research due to their long history (thousands of years) of strong phenotypic selection. This process has enriched for novel mutations that have contributed to phenotype evolution in domestic animals. The characterization of such mutations provides insights in gene function and biological mechanisms. This review summarizes genetic dissection of a...
