Diagnostics & Medical Devices

Biotechnology researchers develop many of the tests (biochemical, electrochemical, optical, and imaging-based) used by medical laboratories, as well as the instruments, implants, in vitro reagents, and other devices used to diagnose, prevent, or treat diseases or other pathological conditions. Researchers from biology, chemistry, engineering and medicine disciplines work in this area.
