BIOMATHEMATICS AND BIOENGINEERING SCIENCES


In recent scientific endeavors, we have noticed a trend toward bio-inspired studies. Usually in a reckless viewpoint, this wave of oriented-studies is something recent, but rooted in the past (some points out influences from Aristotle.) We might assert with a certain difficult degree to quantify that this will take place amongst the challenges of the new millennia with promises of development of novel ideas and branches of science. On the current paper, the author makes no effort to applying its best intellectual abilities in the target of demonstrating in a formal approach this new trend and simultaneously we invite the new scientists (in special students) for gathering this massive effort. In a parallel manner, but not lesser, we intend to catch the attention of the responsible ones for the transcripts of the engineering sciences to take into account this paper when designing new courses in engineering sciences or even making changes in old-teaching pathways; this is especially for Brazilian institutions and (industrial) production engineering. The article is based on papers – which references are left – and personal experiences – which can be faced as the golden nugget of the paper –.    


Keywords: Engineering-sciences teachings; bioengineering; the challenges of the millennia; biomathematics; (industrial) production engineering.
