  • Title: Introduction to bioengineering: melding of engineering and biological sciences.
    Author: Shoureshi RA.
    Journal: Otolaryngol Clin North Am; 2005 Apr; 38(2):185-97, v. PubMed ID: 15823588.
    Abstract:
    Engineering has traditionally focused on the external extensions of organisms, such as transportation systems, high-rise buildings, and entertainment systems. In contrast, bioengineering is concerned with inward processes of biologic organisms. Utilization of engineering principles and techniques in the analysis and solution of problems in medicine and biology is the basis for bioengineering. This article discusses subspecialties in bioengineering and presents examples of projects in this discipline.
