In 2000, Johns Hopkins University received an award from the Whitaker Foundation, enabling the hiring of 10 tenure line faculty with principal appointments in the Whiting School of Engineering. The department has since developed with the formation of several Centers of Excellence and Institutes including the Center for Imaging Science (CIS ...
The Johns Hopkins University Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing (CAAT) has worked with scientists, since 1981, to find new methods to replace the use of laboratory animals in experiments, reduce the number of animals tested, and refine necessary tests to eliminate pain and distress (the Three Rs as described in Russell and Burch's Principles of Humane Experimental Technique).

Biorobotics is an interdisciplinary science that combines the fields of biomedical engineering, cybernetics, and robotics to develop new technologies that integrate biology with mechanical systems to develop more efficient communication, alter genetic information, and create machines that imitate biological systems.
Human-Robot Collaboration is the study of collaborative processes in human and robot agents work together to achieve shared goals. Many new applications for robots require them to work alongside people as capable members of human-robot teams. These include robots for homes, hospitals, and offices, space exploration and manufacturing.
Health systems engineering or health engineering (often known as health care systems engineering (HCSE)) is an academic and a pragmatic discipline that approaches the health care industry, and other industries connected with health care delivery, as complex adaptive systems, and identifies and applies engineering design and analysis principles in such areas.

Researchers from the University at Texas demonstrated a rehabilitation robot in helping hand movements. A rehabilitation robot is an example of a robot-aided system implemented in health care. This type of robot would aid stroke survivors or individuals with neurological impairment to recover their hand and finger movements.
Human Factors in Engineering and Design has had a significant impact on the field of human factors and ergonomics. The book has helped shape the development of the field and provided a framework for designing human-centered systems. It continues to be a valuable resource for students, researchers, and practicing professionals.
