to power Australia's first bionic eye. Associate Professor Gregg Suaning, of UNSW’s Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering and a project leader in Bionic Vision Australia (BVA), said the microchip -- which has 98 electrodes to stimulate
of them as they hit a wall a fluid. The instrument, called a deformability cytometer, was developed by UCLA biomedical engineering doctoral students Daniel Gossett and Henry Tse and assistant professor of bioengineering Dino Di Carlo. It consists
the skull to fuse too soon after birth. However, Chris Hermann, a PhD student in the Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech (Atlanta, GA, USA), has developed imaging software that can monitor this bone growth by
high temporal resolution (1000 frames/s). The team, which is led by Amit Meller, associate professor of biomedical engineering and physics, based their work on a custom total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy set-up

where light attenuation by blood and soft tissue is minimal. As a result, Younan Xia of the Department of Biomedical Engineering of Washington University (St. Louis, MO, USA; ww.wustl.edu) prepared gold nanoshells (composite particles
