Biomedical Sciences
A biomedical scientist ( biomedician, medical scientist ), is a scientist trained in the ( biology ) especially in the context of medicine. The research of biomedical scientists is referred to as biomedical research. These scientists work to understand the biological principles that govern the function of the human body, to discover the mechanisms of disease, and to find innovative ways to treat or cure disease by developing advanced diagnostic tools or new therapeutic strategies.
Biomedical scientists can have a particular focus on Pure research, pre-clinical, or translational research, they exercise a greater knowledge and depth of biological and clinical science than their more patient orientated counterparts.
Scientists educated in fields other than biology also contribute to overall medical knowledge, including organic chemists, biochemists, chemical engineers, biological engineers and biophysicists.
