Ogni modulo equivale a 3 crediti ECTS. È possibile scegliere un totale di 10 moduli/30 ECTS nelle seguenti categorie:
- 12-15 crediti ECTS in moduli tecnico-scientifici (TSM)
I moduli TSM trasmettono competenze tecniche specifiche del profilo e si integrano ai moduli di approfondimento decentralizzati. - 9-12 crediti ECTS in basi teoriche ampliate (FTP)
I moduli FTP trattano principalmente basi teoriche come la matematica, la fisica, la teoria dell’informazione, la chimica ecc. I moduli ampliano la competenza scientifica dello studente e contribuiscono a creare un importante sinergia tra i concetti astratti e l’applicazione fondamentale per l’innovazione - 6-9 crediti ECTS in moduli di contesto (CM)
I moduli CM trasmettono competenze supplementari in settori quali gestione delle tecnologie, economia aziendale, comunicazione, gestione dei progetti, diritto dei brevetti, diritto contrattuale ecc.

(1) The lecture aims to provide an overview of Biomedical Engineering. It starts with the history of Biomedical Engineering and then focuses on current methods and tools.
(2) Physiological principles will be discussed before focusing on subjects like biosignals and sensors.
(3) Topics discussed include, among others, bioimaging, biomolecular engineering, tissue engineering, and precision/personalized medicine.
(4) The participants will get an insight into basic requirements such as biology & physiology, used materials for implants & prostheses, and available biomaterials.
(5) Current clinical topics, such as osteoporosis, fracture fixation & osteoarthritis, are addressed. In addition, treatment methods in orthopedics and osteosynthesis are analyzed, such as fracture fixation, primary stability of implants & joint replacements.
(6) A more profound insight is provided into measurement technologies for the human body's performance (kinematics & kinetics; e.g., movement analysis, muscular & brain activity).
(7) The course will also discuss (robot-assistive) rehabilitation technologies in the case of neuropathology, such as, e.g., stroke, MS, and paraplegia, with a specific focus on innovations in virtual/augmented reality.
Requisiti
Basic knowledge in cell biology, anatomy, functional anatomy, and pathology (fracture, neuro, orthopedics, osteosynthesis)
Obiettivi di apprendimento
The first half of each afternoon session will be lectures on biomedical engineering and prosthetics. During the second half, the students will focus, as a group, on medical devices of their choice (either an already existing medical device or a medical aid they would like to build in the future).
