BME 3020 - Cellular Principles of Biomedical Engineering

(crosslisted)
(also CHEME 4020)

Spring. 3 credits.

Prerequisite: BME 3010 or course work in basic biology such as BIOG 1110, BIOMG 3300, or BIOMI 2900 plus mathematics through differential equations (e.g., MATH 2210 or MATH 2940), or permission of instructor. Lec and lab.

C. Fischbach-Teschl and S. D. Archer.

Integration of mammalian cell biology with engineering modeling principles, put into the context of medical pathology and disease states. Consists of three modules: (1) cell culture techniques/receptor ligand interactions, (2) cellular trafficking, and (3) signal transduction.
