from biomedical devices to microelectromechanical components, photonics and optoelectronics, metamaterials, electronics, energy storage, and more.
Guasto says the new understanding could help in the design of medical equipment to reduce such infections: Since the phenomenon peaks at particular rates of shear, he says, «Our results might suggest additional design criteria
for biomedical devices, which should operate outside this range of shear rates, when possible — either faster or slower.»
VentureDeal founder Don Jones says there's keen investor interest in
biomedical devices that can cut healthcare costs by reducing the need for surgery.

The course «gave me a big vision to understand all the steps going from the research to the application of this research to help people,» says Frias, who hopes to start a company or sell her hip technology to
a biomedical device company.
«We are developing the design rules for a new generation of plastic — or, better, rubber — electronics for applications in energy,
biomedical devices, wearable and conformable devices for defense applications, and for consumer electronics,» said Lipomi.
Modern medicine increasingly relies on implantable
biomedical devices but their effectiveness is often limited because of unsuccessful integration with host tissue or the development of untreatable infections, necessitating replacement of the device through revision surgery.
Such capabilities position the technique for potential use in tissue engineering and industrial applications, such as
biomedical devices, energy storage and microelectromechanical systems.
Both silkworm and spider silk, for example, have potential uses in
biomedical devices, he notes.
