Pardon me if I've got this wrong, but I'm posting this as a general introduction, not a specific forum question.

I have many years experience in design, manufacture and inspection of medical devices, primarily mechanical prosthetic heart valves, but with some orthopedic implants as well. I have a few patents in these areas.

I have a rudimentary knowledge of classical physics from high school and first year college AP. I have a similar level of knowledge of calculus with a tiny bit of linear algebra thrown in. I'm expecting math to be a challenge.

Physics was my first interest in school, but I ended up in manufacturing. As time becomes available, I want to explore physics again.

Welcome to PhysicsForums. This is indeed the Introductions forum, so you nailed it! Questions go in the other technical or general forums.

It's great to have you here. Several of us have experience in medical device design and/or Biomedical Engineering. Enjoy! :smile:
 
Welcome, glider77!
 
Thanks!
 
Hi everyone, I'm just a physics enthusiast. I took some first-year courses a long time ago, but I wasn't able to continue, so I don't have a degree. Still, I'm really passionate about the subject and try to keep up with it as much as I can. I mostly study in my (limited) free time, going through books I didn’t get the chance to read when I was younger. Thanks for your attention!
