Microelectronic Devices and Human Health

Abstract

Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) offers a wide range of techniques and approaches to study and interact with biological systems. The mapping of physical- biological world in an electronic system or vice versa is a big task between two branches. However, complex nature of living cells and involvement of diverse molecules allows us to connect the electrical system to biological system and augment the Bio- ECE branch. Designed automation methods, originally formulated for the design of electronic circuits, now play a central role in synthetic biology, with potential benefits for drug and vaccine development, bioplastics production, and bio- sensor design. Similarly, materials science and nanotechnology play a crucial part in the discovery, characterization of new electronic devices as well as new biomaterials. Computer algorithms and electronic devices are also fundamental to modern medicine: innovative imaging modalities, computer- aided diagnosis, modified treatment regimes, and disease trend analyses are some of the fascinating areas where ECE methods play a vital role. In this article we have briefed on bioelectronics devices and importance of microelectronic devices and their importance in human health for disease diagnosis and treatment. Microelectronic devices can help efficiently to overcome cost-effectiveness and time minimization for human health management.
