Welcome

Welcome to Rice Bioengineering’s Educational Video Repository!

We aim to cultivate a teleteaching environment where bioengineering students can supplement their learning by acquiring unique technical communication skills, while developing instructional resources.

What are the videos about?

All of the videos you see on this site are student-produced. These short videos are created with the goal of providing explanations for a wide range of bioengineering technical concepts such as human physiology, medical devices, troubleshooting of clinically-relevant instrumentation, and bioethics. The videos provide a creative way for students to engage with the material outside of the classroom. With every video, you will find a mix of discussion questions, completion quizzes and additional resources to further your enrichment.

Bioengineers build and improve solutions to complicated problems that impact our everyday lives. Thus, engineers must understand how to deftly navigate ethical dilemmas with various moral frameworks so that rights and responsibilities are properly upheld.

 

One area of specialization bioengineers can pursue is the design and development of medical devices such as pacemakers or MRIs, where expertise in both engineering and medicine is utilized.

 

 

How do our body parts work and what are their functions? Breakthroughs in physiological understanding have allowed engineers and physicians to collaborate and translate these discoveries to deliver better patient care.

 

 

Technology, engineering, and medicine combine in bioinstrumentation, where instruments are used for the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of diseases. This involves the recording, signal processing, and transmittance of physiological data.
