Biomedical engineering is one of the fastest developing research disciplines in the past 60 years with the aid of rapid advances in technology. Biomedical engineering has emerged in Turkey in late 1970s but the research conducted in this area has been developing only in the past 15 years. The aim of this review is to summarize the problems regarding biomedical engineering in Turkey; to present the main subjects that are conducted in biomedical field in Turkey; and to summarize the prominent research papers conducted by Turkish Institutes published during 2008-2018 that contribute and/or have a potential to contribute to research and development (R&D) in biomedical engineering field in Turkey. These studies were divided into categories of tissue engineering, biosensors and biomedical devices; and summarized in this review
