BME1453H: Cell and Tissue Engineering

This course presents an overview of current approaches being used to control and manipulate mammalian cells for therapeutic purposes. An emphasis on how using engineering tools can be used to integrate and enhance what is known about mammalian cell behavior. Specific topics include: receptor/lig and interactions, cell adhesion, cell migration, signal transduction, cell growth and differentiation, and developmental processes. Examples and problems from gene therapy, cellular therapy, tissue engineering, and bioprocess design are used to illustrate fundamental bioengineering principals.
