Metrics details
Developing a device development educational core will further enhance national, international and multidisciplinary innovation and collaboration in the biomedical device domain.
Academic researchers and physicians play a critical role in biomedical innovation, particularly in the field of medical devices1. Collaborations between physicians/researchers and industry have led to such devices as steerable cardiac catheters and artificial heart valves1. Now, more than ever, there is potential to treat and cure diseases with devices and technology.
