AI is rapidly advancing biomedical engineering, with the potential to contribute to medical device development, personalized diagnostics or treatment, patient outcome prediction, or drug discovery. Specifically, AI in biomedical engineering can assist in disease diagnosis and treatment optimization to predict patient prognoses. AI and machine learning applications can also enhance biological signal analysis and image processing in biomedical technologies, advancing fields such as brain-computer interfaces, neuroprosthetics, and medical imaging. This themed section aims to showcase current research on AI applications in biomedical engineering from engineers, clinicians, and industry experts.
We seek contributions that demonstrate how AI is being used in biomedical research, diagnosis, treatment, and patient care. We welcome original research, viewpoints, literature reviews, and research letters that provide insight into the applications of AI in biomedical engineering.
Topics for this new section in JMIR Biomedical Engineering include, for example, AI applications for:
- Developing, designing, or improving medical devices, systems, and products
- Augmenting biomedical processes (eg, diagnosis, drug delivery, disease management, or treatment)
- Enhancing medical imaging technologies or processing (eg, image segmentation, image synthesis and image analysis)
- Fusion of machine learning and domain knowledge, including feature extraction and computational modeling from biomedical images and annotation-efficient learning from biomedical imaging
- Developing intelligent prosthetics, artificial limbs, or biomechanical enhancements
- Addressing ethical issues related to the design and applications of AI in biomedical engineering

About JMIR Biomedical Engineering (JBME)
JMIR Biomedical Engineering (JBME) is a peer-reviewed journal indexed in PubMed, PubMed Central, Sherpa/Romeo, DOAJ and EBSCO/EBSCO Essentials. It focuses on applying engineering principles, technologies, and medical devices to medicine and biology. The journal would welcome manuscripts covering notable developments in the field of biomedical engineering, including but not limited to, computations, tissue engineering, drug delivery, nanotechnology, and applications of artificial intelligence (AI) for medical devices.As an open access journal, we are read by clinicians and patients alike and have (as are all JMIR journals) a focus on readable and applied science reporting the design and evaluation of health innovations and emerging technologies. We publish original research, viewpoints, and reviews (both literature reviews and medical device/technology/app reviews).
JMIR Biomedical Engineering has been publishing since 2016 and features a rapid and thorough peer-review process.
JMIR Biomedical Engineering has been selected for inclusion in Scopus.
