Nanobiotechnology and Nanomedicine
BCH 2024H
This module will provide an overview of cutting edge research that leverages nanotechnology and microfabrication to provide new ways to study biological processes and clinical phenomena. The convergence of biology, chemistry and engineering in these areas will be highlighted. Nanomaterials that report on intracellular events, microdevices that allow biological processes to be replicated in vitro, and materials systems for cellular engineering will be some of the topics reviewed.
Biochemistry students will be given first priority until December 1st.
