E62 BME 4015 Biomedical Data Science Capstone Design 3.0 Units Details Save  Cancel   My Note:   Description: Previously described as BME 401DS. This course provides a client-centered design experience in biomedical data science. Students will work as individuals or in small teams with possible clients to define and scope an unmet need in biomedical data science. The students will work on an original solution or a redesign of an existing solution to address the unmet need. The design experience will involve application of knowledge and skills acquired in earlier coursework. It will also incorporate best practices in biomedical data science, including ethical considerations such as respect for persons, social license, and vulnerabilities; patient safety and privacy; and HIPAA compliance. Students will be guided through the design process and will produce and present appropriate deliverables for their project. This course is required for the Biomedical Data Science minor.

Working in small teams, students will work towards building a prototype of the student design which was a product of 401A. The students will be expected to design a verification and validation plan to test the prototype built. The design experience will require application of knowledge and skills acquired in earlier coursework and lab experiences; it will incorporate engineering standards and realistic constraints that include most of the following considerations: economic, environmental, sustainability, manufacturability, ethical, health and safety, FDA, social, and political. Students will prepare written reports and present their designs orally to a panel of faculty members and industrial representatives. The final product of BME 401B will be a prototype, and a descriptive paper describing their solution documenting how the prototype satisfies the design specifications, with the validation and verification results.

During the summer, students first attend an orientation at PolyU to learn about functional electrical stimulation (FES) and treating cerebral palsy with orthotic devices. The entire group then goes to a clinic in mainland China where they put into practice what they have learned, the former in patients who have suffered strokes and the latter in children with cerebral palsy - working in teams to diagnose, fit and fabricate orthotic devices. A written summary of the experience is the final product. Academic credits are awarded at the end of the fall semester following the summer experience.

Engineers and inventors can make real and rapid improvements to patient treatments, length of hospital stay, procedure time, cost containment, and accessibility to treatment. However, a successful transition from idea to implementation requires careful market analysis and strategy planning. This course will address the steps in this process, including personal and team strength assessement, medical need validation, brainstorming initial solutions, market analysis, solution evaluation, regulatory, patent, and intellectual property concerns, manufacturability, risk assessment and mitigation, and global considerations. Students will be expected to review resource material prior to coming to class in order to facilitate active class discussion and team-based application of the material during class; regular attendance will be key to course success. The course will focus on applying product development techniques to several real unmet medical needs; students will thus perform analysis and create reports and presentations for several different product solutions. Peer and faculty evaluations will provide feedback to improve individual technique. In addition, throughout the semester, local biomedical entrepreneurs will visit to share their expertise and experiences.
