here I am, lying in bed and asking myself if I should study today or tomorrow for my anatomy exam. thanks to this woman, I‘m going to study immediately! thank you
As a researcher in biomaterials field is so nice to see how our object of study is so diverse and brings so much curiosity and wonder in all people. Even i´m in the area for almost 10 years, brings me joy see others just talking or teaching something related. Sometimes, when i´m down because of all the types of difficulties we can found working fully as a researcher, see talks like that gives me hope and reminds me why i choose and keep choosing that :)
@Mawntain uhh yikes check up on your research, all engineering majors secure a job. engineering is the basis of everything. who built the vaccine? biomedical engineers.
@@chloes1308 discovery of vaccine for covid is done by Scientists (and they have md degree and are involved in research)... The Research in video is more inclined towards biomedical sciences not biomedical engineering...
i was always super interested in bio but engineering, i was often told, is nothing for girls. Being a girl about to finish HIgh school and wanting to go to uni seeing another girl on stage talk with such passion about a topic i always loved, motivates me and gives me courage. So, Thank You!
As a little Muslim teenager who aspires to be a future biomedical engineer I found this very inspiring and thank the lovely girl for shedding light on what it truly does mean to be a biomedical engineer I really can’t wait
Glad I could be of assistance! Learning about this kinda stuff in AP bio last year inspired me more than anything I've read about in school so far. Knowing that that class barely scratches the surface of what it means to be a biologist/bioengineer excites me so much for the future!
@@radnukespeoplesminds the epitome of r/iamverysmart, alright professor tell me how you are saving us from Coronavirus with your Godly knowledge of quantum physics.
I'm about to start Biomedical Engineering. I don't know what exactly expect, but I feel excited. I have a question for you, Sofia. I hope you see this... Do you think Biomedical Engineers needs imagination and that kind of stuff? I'm very scared about that because I'm not sure if I will be enough.
Everything needs imagination, if you are scared, that is good you don't have an ego, which is bad in this field. Always ask for help if you don't understand stuff, and don't learn just what professors tell you to learn. Always have a book out of your field just for fun and to learn. In Slovenia we are very much multitasking, i am helping on biomedical program and also on condense matter, as we have the same department. So always have an open mind, because those fields can connect in different ways. Good luck from me :)
As a 3rd a student in biomedical engineering, I'd say you need to be able to think how to take smtg you learn in science, maths and nature and apply it to the medical field. This is really hard hence why as medical engineers we learn almost every major topic in engineering, from mechanics to programming to fluids and medical sciences. However, we don't specialise in anything specifically which is a blessing and a curse as looking for a job is really hard to specify what you are good at since you'll be able to do anything but not as well as someone from doing an engineering degree on that subject. For example, programming, as a medical engineering student, I know am I better in programming than most engineering students but not as good as a software engineer hence applying a job in IT seems daunting to me. So keep that in mind but otherwise its the future of the engineering world and alot of potentials are yet to tapped into.
Hi Tatiana, hope all is well. Along with what other people said, having a broad imagination is seldom a bad thing. But it's important to never lose track that you're in a scientific field that is logic driven. If you have an out of the box idea that implements a fundamentally scientific concept, great! Test it, research it. But you can't go pulling things out of thin air. I echo the advice of the other commentators when I say it's a good sign to be a little nervous. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. Scientists are generally eager to explain their work. Good luck!
I love this, it will be really big someday, Biomedical engineering that is. As long as we continue to integrate and modify the latest feats in computer engineering we can tie it to our own studies and make life greater. Like Pure Math and Applied math are related. Sofia Mehmood what year of study are you?
I wasn't really super into this field of study until I took AP Bio in high school. But definitely nurture the scientific curiosity she has by encouraging her to ask good questions and implement the experimental design process to answer them. Sounds complicated but it can really be implemented anywhere! Encouraging scientific and logical thinking is really the most important part of raising good scientists
Definitely get her more into the sciences (biology, chemistry, physics) and math. Show her that they're more than subjects--that she can use them as "second languages," so to speak. The earlier, the better. Also encourage her to develop good study habits, that will help her in high school and college when things get a tad bit more difficult. I'm in my senior year of college as a Biomedical Engineer, and I wish I had discovered better study habits much earlier.
see what programs her school may offer or the school district, often on the district website also, don't force it on her (obviously) don't push her too hard so to driver her away from it
I'm also trying to get admission in biomedical engineering. It's good to know there are really passionate people out there.. Carry on, i hope I'll meet you there somewhere half way. 😄
Hello sofia M. Iam really feeling happy to watch your Biomedical Engineering research. My questions are. From where you belong? How did you chosen that area of research? Is this your masters work or pHd? Iam a fresh graduate from liaquat University of medical health and science Pakistan. What should i do? I have worked on bio materials. Thanks :)
Hi Khurshid! Glad you enjoyed the talk. I'm from the greater Philadelphia area but my family also hails from Pakistan! I was in high school when I gave this talk but I am an undergraduate now. So, neither masters nor PhD, but the plan is to eventually have an MD.
Aya brkat I honestly love it. It’s challenging but rewarding. I love science and math, and biomedical engineering is about applying those two things to help people medically. I wouldn’t pick any other field tbh
@@sleep4life812 I'm planning on entering the workforce! I thought about grad school but honestly with covid still going on, that's not a priority right now. I'm not trying to become a professor or do intense research, so grad school isn't really important
I don't know if I should follow biomedical engineering or biomedical sciences, which one will have the most impact on human health and longevity? biomedical enginering is going to be more promising and more entrepreneurial opportunities in the future, right? biomedical engineering is the most suitable for medical nanorobos (that will help us, being within our bloodstream) and machine-person interface/ upload the mind to a computer? which one will have the most impact on cryonics, to conserve humans to resurrect later? in short: will human health and longevity be closer to science or technology?
What I noticed while applying to schools is that a lot of schools have different names for the same thing. Yes, there are very slight differences between biomedical engineering, biomedical sciences, bioengineering, etc but their research areas are largely the same and there is a lot of overlap. You should be able to pursue any of what you mentioned above with any biomedical related major.
Someone please reply I am a chemistry graduate and now I am planning to do biomedical engineering as my masters and I got into a prestigious university. Is it going to be too hard for me since I am not from an engineering background and is there good job opportunities for BME out there?
I’m currently studying bme as a undergrad and it isn’t hard, you need to find what you are interested in since it’s such a broad subject. For example I’m interested in drug delivery and regenerative medicine. Both of these 2 specializations require the knowledge of chemistry, material science and engineering.
@@samamuhit2531 thankyou Nora for replying. But I have not many knowledge on the engineering field and I have subjects like computer aided design which I haven't studied before . So it is easy to grasp subjects like this?
@@gilnajames4532 going into bme I had no previous knowledge of CAD or any type of software engineering. But I was able to learn with trial and error! I actually found out that I wasn’t really into the electronics side of bme and stuck with the biological/ chemistry aspect of it. It isn’t too difficult to learn it just takes practice like everything else!
@@samamuhit2531 hi, I'm so confused and scared because I have red a lot that the path is really hard for biomedical engineers to find a job, how has bien your experience?
@@julioleonandrade1939 don’t be! There are so many opportunities in BME! There are job opportunities in healthcare/ medicine and the general industry. BME is known to be a Jack of all trades you just have to find something within bme and stick with it. Obviously there are going to be topics in Bme that you won’t be interested in, but when you do focus on a specific specialization within bme and you will be okay!
God bless her she's such a good clear speaker and so intelligent
Love this talk, I'm currently studying Biomedical Engineering at University. Feeling so inspired after watching this, keep it up!

Are these biomedical engineering questions or molecular medicine questions?
