system, etc. Source: Webopedia
Biology - A natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth,
evolution, distribution, and taxonomy. Biology has many sub disciplines unified by five so-called axioms of modern biology.
Biometrics - Biometry; the measurement and analysis of unique physical or behavioral characteristics (as fingerprint or voice
patterns) especially as a means of verifying personal identity.
Biomimetics - Use of synthetic and natural elements in an attempt to create body parts such as muscles.
Bioprinting – The construction of a biological structure by computer-aided, automatic, layer-by-layer deposition, transfer, and
patterning of small amounts of biological matter.
Biostatistics - statistical processes and methods applied to the analysis of biological phenomena
Biotechnology - The manipulation (as through genetic engineering) of living organisms or their components to produce useful
usually commercial products (as novel pharmaceuticals); any of various applications of biological science used in such manipulation
Brain Mapping - A set of neuroscience techniques predicated on the mapping of (biological) quantities or properties onto spatial
representations of the (human or non-human) brain resulting in maps. Brain Mapping is further defined as the study of the anatomy
and function of the brain and spinal cord through the use of imaging (including intra-operative, Microscopic, Endoscopic and MultiModality imaging), Immunohistochemistry, Molecular & opt genetics, Stem cell and Cellular Biology, Engineering (material, electrical
and biomedical), Neurophysiology and Nanotechnology. Source: Merriam Webster Medical Dictionary
Brain science - The interdisciplinary scientific study of the mind and its processes. It examines what cognition is, what it does and
how it works. It includes research on intelligence and behavior, especially focusing on how information is represented, processed,
and transformed (in faculties such as perception, language, memory, reasoning, and emotion) within nervous systems (human or
other animal) and machines (e.g. computers).
Budgeting - A quantified financial plan for a forthcoming accounting period.
Business Analytics (BA) - The skills, technologies, applications and practices for continuous iterative exploration and investigation
of past business performance to gain insight and drive business planning. Business analytics focuses on developing new insights
and understanding of business performance based on data and statistical methods.
Business communication - Encompasses such topics as marketing, brand management, customer relations, consumer behavior,

communication, employee engagement, and event management. Source: Webopedia
Business continuity planning - A broad disaster recovery approach whereby enterprises plan for recovery of the entire business
process. This includes a plan for workspaces, telephones, workstations, servers, applications, network connections and any other
resources required in the business process. Source: Gartner IT Glossary
