Biomedical Computer Science
JOB DESCRIPTION
Biomedical computer scientists are the future of the human race. A computer scientist create and design programs for use in research. This means that they develop the technology to 3-D print organs such as livers. Biomedical computer scientists are also responsible for computer simulations. Without computer scientists, we wouldn't be able simulate whether the printed organs would work or not. Biomedical computer scientists have created the programming for 3-D printed organs.

DUTIES AND TASKS
Biomedical computer scientist have many duties and tasks. One is designing computer software for surgeries. What they must do is develop programs to put in computers to automatically do surgeries. Also, what they do is make computers small enough to fit inside brains of animals such as rats and cats. This is so that the engineers can tell the computer scientists what they want programmed within the animal. A typical day includes figuring new ways to decrease the size and weight of the computers and also programming the computers as well.

WORK ENVIRONMENT
Biomedical computer scientists can work in computer labs. These labs could be in colleges or other schools. They also can work at office buildings. I do not believe that the computer scientists wear lab coats but they are to wear business casual attire. The environment can be anywhere from a tiny cubical to a full scale lab.

EDUCATION AND TRAINING
A master’s degree or a PhD in a computer-related concentration is required for employment in this field. Individuals seeking to obtain a graduate degree in this area can start out with a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering, computer science, software engineering, information technology or information systems. Extensive knowledge and experience are often required for most jobs.
