Society for Biomedical Engineering and Medical Informatics (SBEMI) is one of the specialized societies of the Slovak Medical Association (SMA).

It is an apolitical non-profit organisation  financed from member contributions, its own activities and possible subsides and donations. SBEMI associates specialists from

  • biomedical engineering

  • medical informatics

 

The society aims to create a platform for activities of technologically, mathematically and medically oriented specialists working in the research and application of new methods, material and devices for the healthcare. Main tasks of the Society are

  • spread of information on new medical technologies, methods for biosignal measurement and processing, methods and systems for medical information retrieving and processing,

  • cooperation with technical and medical universities in graduate and postgraduate education of specialists for the field of biomedical engineering and medical informatics,

  • participation in introducing of new information and engineering technologies for biomedicine,

  • providing methodological, technological and technical support for healthcare institutions.

 

The tasks of the Society are accomplished by organizing seminars and conferences, by supporting the participation of society members in conferences and by publishing in scientific journals.
