Bioengineering Approaches to Pulmonary Physiology and Medicine (1996)
by Michael C.K. Khoo, Ph.D.

Bioengineering Approaches to Pulmonary Physiology and Medicine was published by Plenum Press in 1996. This book was edited by Dr. Michael C.K. Khoo and is based primarily on presentations delivered at two meetings: the 12th BMSR Short Course, organized by Dr. Khoo, held in Seattle, WA on May 20, 1995 and a symposium entitled "Nonlinear Dynamics and Respiratory Control", co-chaired by Drs. Hoop and Khoo, held during the Annual Fall Conference of the Biomedical Engineering Society in Boston, MA on October 8, 1995. This book covers the following areas in pulmonary bioengineering:
