The department focuses on the research and development of medical devices, covering the entire life cycle from conceptualization to technology transfer, including empirical design, computer aided modelling, in-silico evaluation, fabrication, prototyping and functional evaluation. The department has six divisions, four of which established their own domains of medical devices development; while the other two strongly support the device development activities in terms of precision fabrication of prototype devices and developing animal models for pre-clinical evaluation.
-
Division of Artificial Internal Organs
-
Division of Extracorporeal Devices
-
Division of Medical Instrumentation
-
Division of Polymeric Medical Devices
-
Division of Precision Fabrication
Apart from the above functions, the department extends support services to other internal divisions and external customers. They include Rapid Prototyping Facility, Ethylene Oxide Sterilization, Package Validation, Material Characterization and Computer Aided Design & Analysis.
