    • Aktuelle forskningsområder for bioingeniører innen medisinsk biokjemi 

      Almås, Synnøve Hofseth; Nilsen, Ragnhild (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      <p><i>Innledning.</i> Bioingeniørfaget er lite synlig i helsevesenet. Å identifisere forskningsområder innen biokjemisk laboratoriemedisin, kan være et ledd i å synliggjøre yrket. Mer forskning innen bioingeniørfaget er viktig for å kunne evaluere nye behandlingsteknikker, utvikle evidensbasert praksis og bedre pasientbehandling. Dette prosjektet er andre del av en studie som undersøker aktuelle ...
