Hoskins awarded a DSc in ‘'Measurement and validation in arterial
mechanics for clinical diagnosis'’ May 2009 “Sensors and Actuators for Biomedical
Applications” was organised by the Centre for Biomedical Engineering
at Edinburgh (CBEE) in conjunction with the Division of Pathway Medicine (DoPM) and the Joint Research Institute for Integrated
Systems (IIS) (part of the Edinburgh Research Partnership in Engineering and
Mathematics). It explored the wide range of activities in microsystems
engineering for biomedical related applications being undertaken by members
of the CBEE and the IIS and their various collaborators at the Universities
of Edinburgh and Heriot Watt. April 2009 Edinburgh research team grows neurons on patterned
surfaces. Results published in Biomaterials. March 2009 Dr
Andy Downes has been awarded an MRC grant (£125k) to monitor stem cells
with optical spectroscopy. Read more… January 2009 Dr Alistair Elfick unveils a ground-breaking
method for improving IVF, monitoring sperm quality with Raman spectroscopy. Link to EPSRC
website January 2009 Stewart Smith wins the IET Nanobiotechnology Premium Award from the Institution
of Engineering and Technology. December 2008 “Functional imaging: recent developments in-vitro
and in-vivo” was a highly successful one-day meeting, with 200 people
signing up. This day of seminars discussed the most cutting-edge techniques
applied to bio-imaging, presented by leading researchers from the University
of Edinburgh. November 2008 Dr Pierre Bagnaninchi
has been awarded an EPSRC grant (£171k) to study “4D monitoring of stem cell differentiation by dielectric
spectroscopic optical coherence tomography” (link to EPSRC) webmaster andy.downes@ed.ac.uk |
