The Biomedical Engineering department focuses on four key research areas: Biophotonics, Biomedical Micro/Nanoscale Systems, Bioimaging and Computation, and Molecular and Cellular Engineering. Biophotonics researchers explore photomedicine, laser microscopy, optical coherence tomography, medical imaging, and light-based therapies. The Micro/Nanoscale Systems group investigates molecular engineering, polymer chemistry, molecular motors, MEMS design and fabrication, microsystems for cellular communication studies, and single-molecule protein dynamics analysis. The Computation team specializes in computational biology, biomedical signal/image processing, medical imaging techniques, protein engineering algorithms, and data mining applications. Exceptional students seeking to combine legal studies with BME graduate work can pursue dual degrees through UC Irvine's Program in Law and Graduate Studies (PLGS), earning both a J.D. from the School of Law and a Master's or Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering through an integrated curriculum.
