Bioengineering means confronting, understanding and solving highly complex problems in biomedicine, bringing together the tools available in the fields of experimental science, life science and engineering in all their facets. The model envisaged by IBEC is inspired by a creative, innovative new ecosystem based on interaction between research experts in different technologies (nano-bio-info-cogno) to generate new knowledge and engineering solutions in health technology.
