Abstract
The development of the modern era of bioengineering and the advances in our understanding of the cardiovascular system have been intertwined over the past one-half century. This is true of bioengineering as an area for research in universities. Bioengineering is ultimately the beginning of a new engineering discipline, as well as a new discipline in the medical device industry.
Highlights
HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE As discussed by both Citron and Nerem[1] and Bergman and Nerem,[2] the medical device industry evolved in the second half of the 20th century
There are more than 100 departments of this type, and the field of biomedical engineering/bioengineering is recognized as being its own academic discipline, an engineering discipline based on the science of biology
The vascular endothelium, which was in contact with the flowing blood and the associated shear stress environment, became a focus on the effects of the hemodynamic environment on vascular endothelial biology.[3]
Summary
HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE As discussed by both Citron and Nerem[1] and Bergman and Nerem,[2] the medical device industry evolved in the second half of the 20th century. TISSUE ENGINEERING AND REGENERATIVE MEDICINE Tissue engineering is another research area where bioengineering has had a significant involvement, and has been intertwined with the growth of this new engineering discipline.
