Defence Bioengineering and Electromedical Laboratory

<h2 id="history">History</h2>
<p>The Defence Bioengineering and Electromedical Laboratory was formed in April 1976 by bringing together the Aero Electroengineering Unit of <a href="/facts/Aeronautical_Development_Establishment/qnJbVhAt">Aeronautical Development Establishment</a> and the Electromedical Instrumentation Division of the <a href="/facts/Electronics_and_Radar_Development_Establishment/fjzoCzVJ">Electronics and Radar Development Establishment</a>, located nearby. Since 23 June 1992, the facility has been functioning at its own independent premises located at the Aeronautical Development Establishment campus.
</p><p>It is one of the few Defence Research and Development Organisation laboratories dedicated to research and development work for the services and also spin off use to the civilian population.
