Biomedical Engineering

The Division of Biomedical Engineering is part of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering with research focused on understanding interactions between materials and biological systems.

Welcome to the Division of Biomedical Engineering

The Division of Biomedical Engineering is part of the Department of Materials Science and Technology at the Ångström Laboratory. Our ambition is to foster a dynamic teaching and research environment that is internationally recognized for its excellence in connecting basic research with clinical applications. We conduct research in the development and evaluation of new materials in interaction with biological systems to understand the underlying principles. For us, it is equally important to study the impact of materials on biological processes as well as the impact of biological processes on materials.
