BioMEMS (Biomedical Microelectromechanical Systems)

BioMEMS (Biomedical Microelectromechanical Systems) are tiny devices that combine mechanical and electronic components to perform medical functions at a microscopic scale. They are used for tasks like detecting diseases, analyzing blood or tissue samples, and delivering drugs precisely where needed. By integrating sensors, actuators, and microfluidic channels, BioMEMS enable faster, more accurate diagnostics and treatments, often with less invasiveness. These systems leverage microfabrication technologies similar to those used in electronics, allowing for compact, efficient, and portable medical devices that improve healthcare outcomes through enhanced precision and faster data collection.
