Biosensors and Instrumentation

Basic principles of biomedical devices and instrumentation. Topics include sensors and transducers (such as voltage sensors, optical sensors, displacement/pressure sensors and accelerometers, and acoustic sensors), signal filtering and amplification (Bode plots, passive and active filters, noise in electrical circuits), data acquisition and signal processing (sampling theory and signal aliasing, analogue-to-digital conversion), ECG, EEG, safety of biomedical instruments and devices, and a brief introduction to medical imaging.
