Part medicine, part biology, and part engineering, biomedicine and bioengineering are by their nature hybrid disciplines. To make these disciplines work, engineers need to speak ''medicine,'' and clinicians and scientists need to speak ''engineering.'' Building a bridge between these two worlds, Bio
