Happy to share the successfully completed enriching industrial visit of the Batch 2022 of the Biomedical Engineering Department from HITEC University, Taxila to the Biological Sciences Department and Sino-Pak Center for Artificial Intelligence (SPCAI), at PAF-IAST Haripur, on 4th December 2024, under the supervision of Engr. Atiqa Saleem who is serving as a focal person of Industrial linkages and visits.

During this visit students explored laboratory equipment and gained valuable insights into research methodologies.

Also, special thanks to Engr. Sheza Tahir for accompanying us on this visit.

A key highlight was a productive meeting between Engr. Atiqa Saleem, Engr. Sheza Tahir, and Dr. Najam-us-Sehar, Head of the Department, to discuss collaboration opportunities between BME at HITEC and Biological Sciences at PAF-IAST.

Milestone achieved! The Batch of 2021, Biomedical Engineering Department at HITEC University Taxila, has successfully concluded their mandatory internships as per the PEC requirement in the form of presentations on 8-11-2024 in Room#EE-07. Special thanks to our Internship Coordinator Engr. Atiqa Saleem for her tireless efforts in placing students at hospitals, providing references, and ensuring a seamless conclusion.

Grateful to Steering Committee Members: Engr. Sheza Tahir, and Engr. Mnahil Javed, and HoD Dr. Nizam Ud Din for their invaluable support.

We are pleased to highlight the recent conduction of Lab in Instrumentation Lab on 31st October 2024. on Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) measurement by our 5th semester students under the supervision of Engr. Atiqa Saleem (Lecturer) at Biomedical Engineering Department.

An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is a non-invasive test that measures the electrical activity of the heart. An ECG can provide information about the heart's rate and rhythm, and can help diagnose conditions like coronary heart disease, atrial fibrillation, and heart attack. It can also be used to monitor how well heart treatments are working.

In this Lab we used BIOPAC Setup and ECG Lead system.
The Lab focused on ECG-1 "Observe rate and rhythm changes in the ECG associated with body position and breathing". Parameters that monitored were as follows:

1. Supine
2. Seated
3. Inhale
4. Exhale
5. After exercise
6. Supine ( systolic/Diastolic)
7. After exercise (systolic/Diastolic)

We are pleased to highlight the commencement of the "Final Year Proposal Defense Presentation" of Final Year Design Projects (FYDP) by final year students of the Biomedical Engineering Department.

The Final Year Design Projects (FYDP) is designed to provide an opportunity to address real-world biomedical challenges and contribute to meaningful solutions by applying engineering principles in healthcare and medicine. 8 groups appeared in a defense presentation held on 30th October 2024 at Biomedical Engineering Department, Room# BME-09.

Final year project (FYDP) committee members are nominated by Chairman Biomedical Engineering Department Dr. Nizam Ud Din. It comprises convener Dr. Sachal Hussain and steering committee members Dr. Nizam ud din and Engr. Zainab Ali to monitor and schedule all the activities related to FYDP (2024-2025).

We are pleased to highlight the recent project exhibition by our senior batch- 6th semester students of Biomedical Engineering Department, focusing on Biomedical Instrumentation-II. Following the directives of the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC), which emphasizes problem-based learning (PBL), our students have displayed projects that demonstrate a profound understanding of instrumentation, design, and innovative research and their engineering applications in medical research.

Dr. Nizam Uddin, Head of the Department, conducted a comprehensive survey of the projects, providing students with profound insights and advanced knowledge. The innovative and diligent efforts of our students are highly commendable. We are proud to showcase their exemplary work. Below are some highlights of projects:
ABO Blood group Detection device.
IOT Based Fall Detection device for elderly.
Renewable smart watch to monitor vital parameters.
Drowsiness detection using Open Brain Computer Interface.
Detection of ALS using LabVIIEW.
SPO2 Monitoring using LabVIEW.
