4.4Now read the text again and decide whether these statements are true or false.

1. Biomedical engineering is the science about people’s health.

2. All biomedical engineers work with medical devices.

3. Chemical engineering is the heart of Biomedical engineering.

4. Prominent biomedical engineering applications include the development of biocompatible processes.

5. Sometimes biomedical engineers make models of living systems.

6. Biomedical engineers use their knowledge of math to look at living systems

4.5 Answer the questions.

1. What have you learnt from the text about biomedical engineering?

2. What special knowledge is necessary for the biomedical engineer?

3. What is biomedical engineering concerned with?

4. What is the difference between “Biomedical engineering” and “Mechanical Engineering”?

Grammar revision

4.6 Put the verbs in the correct tense–aspect forms

1. Biomedical engineering (to have) only recently emerged as its own discipline.

2. Living things (to be) very complicated, so biomedical engineers often (to make) models so the math is easier.

3. Prominent biomedical engineering applications (to include) the development of biocompatible prosthesis.

4. Biomedical engineers (to design) and (to evaluate) all medical equipment used to interface or interact with the human body.

  1. Some biomedical engineers (not to work) with medical devices.

4.7 Transform these passive sentences into active ones.

1. Sometimes, disciplines within BME are classified by their associations with other, more established engineering fields

2. Chemical engineering is often associated with biochemical, cellular, molecular and tissue engineering, biomaterials, and bio transport.

3. Electrical engineering is associated with bioelectrical and neural engineering, bioinstrumentation, biomedical imaging, and medical devices.

4. Mechanical engineering is often associated with biomechanics, bio transport, medical devices, and modeling of biological systems.

4.8 Fill in the gaps with appropriate words from the box.

Speaking

4.9 Imagine that you are a biomedical engineer. What can you offer to this branch of engineering? What problem will it solve? Explain your choice.

(For example: to offer a new type of implant or clinical equipment.)

JARVIK-7 is an artificial heart, an example of a biomedical engineering application of mechanical engineering with biocompatible materials for cardiothoracic surgery using an artificial organ.

    1. Discuss the main ideas of the text in class.
