When we think about healthcare, we often picture doctors and nurses on the frontlines. But behind many life-changing interventions, from artificial limbs to diagnostic devices, are biomedical engineers designing, building, and refining the technologies that make modern healthcare possible. On today’s episode of Humans of Healthcare, we speak to Dr Nooranida Arifin, a biomedical engineer specialising in prosthetics and orthotics, to understand how engineering meets medicine, and how this field is shaping more accessible and equitable healthcare systems.
