Description

This course outlines concepts underlying development of cell-based products and aims to give students a theoretical and practical understanding of the tools available for producing such "devices" as well as the biological, physical and chemical constraints of these systems. Specific topis that will be covered include introductory cell biology and biochemistry, cellular mechanics, mass transfer in cells and tissue, analysis of cell and tissue functions, regulatory requirements for biological products and tissue engineering applications. Laboratory classes will be used to allow students to gain some practical experience with cell and scaffold manipulations.
