What does a biological engineer do?

A biological engineer applies principles of Biology, chemistry, and engineering to develop solutions for problems related to health, agriculture, and the environment. They design and optimize processes for producing biological products, such as pharmaceuticals and biofuels, and work on innovations in tissue engineering, biOSensors, and bioremediation. Their work often involves research and development, as well as the application of engineering techniques to biological systems. Overall, biological engineers aim to improve quality of life through sustainable and efficient biological processes.
