Biomedical engineering is an interdisciplinary specialization that also includes many aspects of modern biotechnology. In this field, several research groups working at the Faculty of Chemistry of Gdańsk University of Technology (Gdańsk Tech) are focused on:
Biochemistry and molecular biology are fundamental sciences. Significant achievements in these fields have a key impact on the development of applied sciences related to health care, including biomedical engineering. Several topics presented below in the field of biochemistry can be proposed by the members of the Faculty of Chemistry:
Research in this field focuses on designing methods and algorithms of intelligent processing multidimensional and multimodal data. It encompasses the processing of data from the environment, traffic, autonomous vehicles, speech, image, bioelectrical, biomedical, biometric signals, data in telecommunications and radio-communication networks; machine, device, and material diagnostics and tele-diagnostics, including telemedicine; multimedia and data processing in IoT systems and Smart City, as well as in military techniques, forensics, and cultural heritage.
Computer algorithm design and optimisation involves, in particular, constructing sequential and parallel algorithms, analysing computational and memory complexities of algorithms, as well as optimizing algorithms and deriving trade-offs. These include both centralized, on-line and distributed algorithms, especially in the field of graph theory. In the distributed setting, mobile agent computing is of particular interest.
The research area is split into three regions: the first one is concentrated on the high frequency and microwave techniques and devices – starting from theoretical research, coming through modelling tools and methods to manufacturing and applications, especially for wireless technologies.
The research is conducted within the areas of interdisciplinary mathematical modelling and simulations, estimation, identification, optimization, advanced methods and structures for control systems, diagnostics and decision support. Research is carried out in various fields, including power systems, microwave, antenna engineering, hardware image processing, cryptography.
