关于我们
With the cooperation of the Jacobs School of Engineering and UC San Diego Health Sciences, UC San Diego formed the Institute for Engineering in Medicine (IEM) in 2008 for the integration of engineering principles and novel technologies with biomedical research and clinical translation. The key technology areas include imaging, systems biology, medical devices, nanotechnology, biomaterials, tissue engineering, biophotonics, and vaccine engineering. One example is a subcutaneous microdevice that provides continuous glucose monitoring in diabetes and automatically adjusts insulin dosage. The IEM partners with the Clinical Translational and Research Institute (CTRI) for the translation of its innovative discoveries to clinical application. Research in the IEM focuses on the convergence of disease, technology, and sciences by applying an engineering approach to medicine. The disease focus areas include cancer, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, musculoskeletal diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases. The IEM establishes new frontiers for research in healthcare by interfacing engineering and biomedical sciences using the team science approach to advance precision medicine. With the active involvement of industry partners and clinical colleagues, the technologies developed in the IEM are transferred to healthcare delivery to enhance the health and well-being of people.

Lisa Poulikakos, Assistant Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and member of the?Biophotonics Technology Center (BTC), is making technological advances in cancer research through the unique wings of the Morpho butterfly. Poulikakos and her team recognized that when under a cancer biopsy sample, the microscopic structures of the Morpho butterfly wing can reveal what stage of cancer a tumor is in. This innovation can save significant amounts of time and money compared to current diagnostic machinery.

"Sucksess!" An interdisciplinary group of researchers from UC San Diego is achieving “sucksess” for newborns by identifying difficulty with nursing using AI algorithms and data from their non-nutritive suckling system.?The team included James Friend, Mechanical and Aerospace Engineer; Erin Walsh, Speech-Language Pathologist and Lactation Consultant; and Vanessa Scott, Pediatrician. We were excited to support this amazing team in 2021 for their interdisciplinary project proposal “Design of a non-nutritive suckling system for real-time characterization of suckling efficacy in neonates” with a GEM Award.
