The Applied Research
Group in Biomedical Computing and Engineering
Technologies (BIOCORE) undertakes research
relating to the development and application
of computational methods, biomedical engineering
and healthcare systems for the analysis, interpretation,
prediction, as well as for the design of biological,
clinical and health-related processes. In that
respect, it acts as a strategic frontier between
the Life Sciences and the Computing / Engineering
Sciences.
BIOCORE has been established as a recognised University Applied Research
Group within the Faculty of Engineering and Computing in order to actively
partake in - both, national and international - innovative and highly
interdisciplinary research in the clinical, medical and healthcare
arenas. Its success is a direct result of its ability to draw upon
the rich and varied amalgam of staff expertise in both the Engineering
and Computing disciplines of the Faculty.
The research carried out within BIOCORE has been recognised as being of international quality as confirmed by the recent RAE2008.
