Description:
The Semana da Bioengenharia (Bioengineering Week) at Instituto Superior Técnico (SBE IST) was first developed in 2014 as an initiative of the Bioengineering Department students of the Masters in Biological Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Biotechnology and Microbiology. Ever since, the mission has been to enhance the relationship between the academic community and both corporate and scientific world, as well as to disseminate the work carried out in Portugal and the rest of the world in the most diverse fields of bioengineering. In order to fulfill this goal, it is gathered, during this week, an interdisciplinary group of students, academics, companies and start-ups, always encouraging the interaction and knowledge sharing between these entities. Hence, SBE IST is a week full of lectures from investigators and companies in the bioengineering area, scientific field trips to relevant investigation or industrial facilities, workshops and international guests, among others. It’s between 18th and 22th of 2019. We participate with a workshop. The goal is to analyze one of the most famous medical exams: the electrocardiogram. The participant has the opportunity to learn things such as: What is its origin? How to use it? What diagnostic features can you get from it? Theory apart, Matlab and a Bitalino are used to get an ECG signal and features of interest.
