This article showcasing the editorial team welcomes all readers to the proceedings of International Conference on Recent Advancements in Biomedical Engineering (ICRABE-2021). The conference was inspired by the fusion of science and engineering principles in healthcare services and products. The conference aims to initiate exchange of innovative ideas between students, research scholar and faculties. Specifically, mechanical principles, power control for medical devices, nanomaterials and associated technologies were focused. This proceeding comprises of a broad spectrum of techniques to expose the recent advancements in the field of physics for healthcare application. A List of the Organizing Committee, Advisory Committee, Technical Committee are available in the pdf.

This article is a review that illustrates the involvement of MMP-13 in the initiation and progression of Osteoarthritis (OA) through the regulation of MMP-13 activity at the molecular and epigenetic levels, as well as the strategies that have been employed against MMP-13. The aim of this review is to identify MMP-13 as an attractive target for inhibitor development in the treatment of OA.

This article describes a system for pupil size estimation with a user interface to allow rapid adjustment of parameters and extraction of pupil parameters of interest in order to identify Parkinson's disease (PD) as early as possible.

Article evaluating whether advanced prostheses can provide better safety and performance capabilities to maintain and improve quality of life in individuals who are predominantly designated MFCL level K2. This study used a 13 month longitudinal clinical trial to determine the benefits of using a C-Leg and 1M10 foot in individuals at K2 level with transfemoral amputation due to vascular disease.

This article develops a molecular cell tracker with a strong fluorescence signal in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window (1,000-1,700 nm) for real-time monitoring of in vivo cell behaviors in both healthy and diseased animal models to address the issue of precisely and quantitatively evaluating the in vivo cell distribution, migration, and engraftment in stem cell therapy.

This article explores a proposed deep-learning-based algorithm called DeepFilter for improving peptide identifications from a collection of tandem mass spectra. The authors find that DeepFilter is believed to generalize properly to new, previously unseen peptide-spectrum-matches and can be readily applied in peptide identification from metaproteomics data.

This article is a review summarizing the significant roles of Notch signaling in individual cardiac cell types. It covers the bioengineering systems of microfluidics, hydrogel, spheroid, and 3D bioprinting and provides insights into ancillary supports of bioengineering systems, varied types of cardiovascular cells, and advanced characterization approaches in further refining Notch signaling in cardiovascular development, disease, and regeneration.

This article presents a consolidated review of Independent Component Analysis (ICA) as an efficient neural coding scheme with the ability to model early visual and auditory neural processing.
