Purpose , enhanced MRI contrast agents, active and controllable drug delivery, long-lasting power systems using bio-thermal energy, and other medical innovations. It is Biophan's intention to further advance scientific biomedical and pharmaceutical innovation and technology development for the benefit of improved healthcare products worldwide." Biophan's technologies also make medical devices safe for MRI. Individual presentations will also address such topics as the roles of complex and correlated matter in nanotechnology. A plenary discussion will follow, providing a critical overview of the possible frontiers of science within nanotechnology.

About Boston University Boston University's Physics Department, part of its College and Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, provides research opportunities in areas such as nanoscience, experimental high-energy physics and astrophysics astrophysics, application of the theories and methods of physics to the study of stellar structure, stellar evolution, the origin of the solar system, and related problems of cosmology. , and polymer physics. Research in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering includes robotics, MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) Tiny mechanical devices that are built onto semiconductor chips and are measured in micrometers. In the research labs since the 1980s, MEMS devices began to materialize as commercial products in the mid-1990s. , and nanotechnology. Boston University, with an enrollment of more than 29,000 in its 17 schools and colleges, is the fourth largest independent university in the United States. About Biophan Technologies Biophan develops and markets cutting-edge technologies designed to make biomedical devices safe and image compatible with the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment. The Company develops technologies that enable implanted medical systems such as pacemakers, interventional surgical devices such as catheters and guidewires, and devices such as stents to be safely and effectively imaged under MRI. Biophan is developing these same technologies to provide new MRI contrast agents. Other applications include drug delivery and power systems derived from body heat. Four Biophan technologies include advances in nanotechnology and thin film coatings. Committed to growth through innovation and developmental leadership, Biophan and its licensors now hold a total of 144 U.S. patents, licenses, or applications. This total includes 41 issued U.S. patents, 9 recently-allowed applications that will issue as patents in the near future, and 94 pending applications at various stages of examination at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, plus international applications. The patents cover areas including nanotechnology (nanomagnetic particle coatings), medical device designs, radio frequency filters, polymer composites, thermoelectric ther·mo·e·lec·tric also ther·mo·e·lec·tri·cal adj. Characteristic of, resulting from, or using electrical phenomena occurring in conjunction with a flow of heat. materials for batteries generating power from body heat, and photonics. Biophan has joint development and licensing agreements with Boston Scientific (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange : BSX BSX Bermuda Stock Exchange BSX Bandai Satellaview-X BSX Bicycle Super-X (Cross) - News) and NASA's Ames Center for Nanotechnology. Biophan's goal is to make all biomedical devices capable of safely and successfully working with MRI, and delivering other technologies which will improve quality of life.
