BIOMED IS THE FUTURE OF HEALTHCARE

Kedaireka Research Awards

What comes to your mind when you heard the word “healthcare”? A Doctor maybe, or some good TV series such as The Good Doctor, Grey’s Anatomy, House, even the classic one like ER. I’m pretty sure there’s a bunch of cute doctors in that series. But have Biomedicine ever pop up in your mind when you heard the word Healthcare?

when all those cute Doctors sophisticatedly explain some medical procedure such as the discovery of a new vaccine or digitally process patient surgery, Chances are, they were talking about Biomedicine. It also the future of medical science, the future of healthcare.

Biomedicine, sometimes Biomedical Science or in a shorter and cooler term, Biomed is the field of study that focuses on the areas of biology and chemistry that are relevant to healthcare. It is an academic field dedicated to the advancement of human medicine and well-being.

As it stated above “dedicated to the advancement of human medicine and well-being.” which makes Biomed have a significant role in the advancement of healthcare. and here’s why :

1. the discovery of a new vaccine

New vaccines have been found and produced to replace the old ones. this can be done with the help of the genetic engineering process. and that is one of the Biomedicine disciplines.

2. Discovery of cancer antibodies

Cancer is still considered a lethal disease. Some types of cancer are still incurable. overtime, there are several types of drugs from biomedical technology that are able to give full effect to cancer patients.

3. Maximizing the use of micro bacteria and nanobacteria

Nanobacteria are also needed in the medical world, especially in genetic engineering. The production of antibodies is done by using bacteria as antigens. An antigen is an important factor in the formation of immunity against a disease. So if the antigen combines with pathogenic cells, it will form immunity against these pathogens. This is where biomedical engineering is still very much needed.

4.Extend human life

The use of biomedical technology can also be used to extend human life or life. The application of this technology is like a pacemaker. It’s a device that uses for a patient with coronary heart disease and it is still widely used.

5. Digitally process patient surgery

with a high percentage of surgical failure rates for patients, The use of biomedical techniques such as the administration of amino acids through an IV to reduce pain or other partial effects can help the operation process run more effectively and efficiently.

quoted from Melinda Siswanto, M.Eng (Biomedical), Teaching Staff of the Indonesia International Institute for Life Sciences (i3L).

“The development of biomedical science itself will continue to innovate as a central step in designing sophisticated therapies and treatments for the health industry. It is hoped that in the future biomedical science can find solutions to health problems that have occurred so far and their direct application.”
