GlossaryBioengineering

application of engineering principles to biological systems and organisms

Bioengineering, also known as Biological Engineering, is a multidisciplinary field that applies principles of biology and engineering to develop technologies and solutions for healthcare, agriculture, and environmental management. This can include the creation of medical devices, development of biopharmaceuticals, and the engineering of tissues and organs for regenerative medicine.
