BMB 510: Intro Biomed Eng&Biotech - fall

Prereq: For Students in the BMB Graduate Program

An introduction to the application of engineering to biological systems. Foundational topics including fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, enzyme kinetics, and design of experiments will constitute the beginning of the class. Following, applications of these introductory concepts will be covered in a set of case studies focused on human organ systems and biotechnology unit operations. We will focus on biomedical engineering concepts and current works through review of relevant literature in the field.
