Seminar on biomedical physics IV 1100-5FM21
The aim of the seminar is to make the students familiar with the contemporary trends and achievements in the field of biomedical physics including scientific problems, as well as practical applications in medicine. The seminar is attended by students of specialties: Medical Physics, Neuroinformatics and Biomedical Physics, staff of the Division of Biomedical Physics and guests from other institutions, interested in given problems. Sometimes, foreign visitors are invited and give a seminar in English. The problems addressed include:
* application of physical techniques e.g.: lasers, ultrasounds, ionizing radiation, electromagnetic fields in diagnostics and therapy,
* signal processing for medicine and biology, with a special emphasis on the analysis of brain signals: electroencephalograms, local field potentials, event related potentials, also electrocardiograms, electromyograms, otoacoustic emissions and others
* neuroinformatics and modeling of biological processes, especially dynamical models of the activity of neural populations, artificial neural networks
* different problems connected with Biomedical Physics in its broadest sense.
