Call for Authors: Biomedical Engineering Undergraduate Handbook

Biomedical Engineering, as discipline, represents the intersection between engineering and the medical sciences. It is a novel field that is gradually being introduced for learning across tertiary institutions in Nigeria. It covers areas such as Robotics, Wearables, Nano-technology, Artificial Organs, Implants, Prosthetics, Medical Imaging, Bio-electronics, Telemedicine, Biomedical Signal Processing and Instrumentation etc.

The novelty nature of this discipline therefore implies that students as well as instructors have limited access to educational resources that could aid the transfer of knowledge in Nigeria. It is for this reason, and more that, a call for authorship is been made.

Authors with advanced degree or currently pursuing advanced degree in Biomedical Engineering or Biomedical Science are invited to contribute book chapters (see topics of interest below) towards the development of a Biomedical Engineering Handbook for Undergraduates in Nigeria.
