Medical and Biological Engineering Education
Capacity Building
EAMBES’ capacity-building initiative aims to connect research, clinical practice, regulation, and innovation while supporting lifelong learning across the biomedical engineering community.
EAMBES Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series: Fundamentals of Electrosurgery
The first episode of the EAMBES Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series features Dr. Davide Piaggio, who explores the fundamentals of electrosurgery and explains how electrosurgical units use high-frequency electrical currents safely and effectively in surgical procedures.
The seminar provides practical insights into one of the most widely used medical technologies in modern healthcare, highlighting both its clinical value and the importance of patient safety.
Whether you are a student, researcher, clinician, regulator, or industry professional, the EAMBES Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series provides an opportunity to learn from experts and stay informed about the technologies shaping the future of healthcare.
