• Biomechanics Group
  • Biological and Biomechanical Engineering Group

The Biological and Biomechanical Engineering Group of the Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering (DEIB) of Politecnico di Milano consists of 11 faculties, 9 research fellows, and more than PhD students, whose activities cover the fields of computer modeling at different length-scales, microfluidics and organs-on-chip, new materials from circular economy, and tissue engineering. The research facilities of the Group are articulated in five laboratories at Politecnico premises and two laboratories located within two of the major hospitals in the Milan area, i.e., Policlinico di Milano Ospedale Maggiore and IRCCS Policlinico San Donato, where activities are carried out in the tightest collaboration with the hosting institutions and their clinicians. The group benefits from being part of Politecnico di Milano, which is the largest Technical University in Italy with over 48,000 students in Engineering, Architecture, and Industrial Design. Politecnico is also the Italian Technical University with the highest position in the international rankings. Of note, the Bioengineering division at DEIB is one of the largest in Europe, with about 50 faculties and 30 research fellows, and more than 220 PhD students. The Bioengineering division coordinates the Bachelor and Master programs and the PhD School in Biomedical Engineering.
