博士工程（生物工程）

生物工程是一个高度跨学科的研究领域，致力于在工程，物理科学，生物学和医学之间建立联系。目的是研究和开发创新的诊断，治疗和实时监测生物医学设备和技术。
The Institute for Bioengineering (IBioE) connects Engineering, Physical Sciences, Biology and Medicine, for innovative diagnostic and therapeutic biomedical devices and technologies. Research themes include: Synthetic Biology - to design and construct (e.g. to ‘engineer') biological devices and systems, often at cellular level. Applications range from therapeutic to environmental. Tissue Engineering - the production of 3D or 2D scaffolds or guidance cues for biological cells. Applications are largely therapeutic and also include new forms of lab-on-chip technology. Biomedical Modelling and Measurement - understanding biological materials through modelling and measurement for applications in, for example, prosthetics, prediction of failure in blood vessels and the behaviour of bone with ageing. We also study the behaviour of biological materials experimentally and in most cases, non-invasively (e.g. via Raman and CARS spectroscopy). Biomedical Devices and Sensors - working with colleagues in chemistry, we develop sensors on silicon for simple biological parameters (e.g. oxygen concentration) along with sensors of specific biomarkers of disease and therapy.
