BME 565 / 665 Principles of Cellular and Tissue Engineering
Introduction to cellular and tissue engineering. Current therapeutic approaches for lost/damaged tissue or organ function, tissue engineering strategies to replace/repair tissue or function: infusion of cells, production and delivery of tissue-inducing substances, cells placed on or within biomaterial scaffolds, examples of tissue engineering applications: skin, heart muscle, blood vessels, and blood.
BME 566 Cell and Tissue Engineering Laboratory
The principles of cell and tissue engineering will be presented in a hands-on laboratory experience. General techniques learned will include sterile methods, cell culture techniques and integration of cells within biomaterials. Cell engineering topics include cell cycle/metabolism, adhesion, signal transduction, and assessment. Tissue engineering topics include fabrication, biomaterials/scaffolds and cell integration, and functional assessment.
Spring 2016
BME 302 Cellular Engineering
Cellular engineering addresses issues related to understanding and manipulating cell structure-function relationships. This course is intended to bridge between cell biologists and engineers, to understand quantitatively cell biological aspects. Central to biomaterial and tissue engineering is our use of cells and our understanding of their interactions with their environment. It is important to understand how cells respond to external signals from their substrata or their milieu, how they move, and what they need in order to perform their desired function. Students are provided with an introduction to cell and molecular biology, engineering principles and modeling at the cellular level. Of particular interest are cytomechanics, receptor/ligand binding, genetic engineering, enzyme kinetics, and metabolic pathway engineering.

BME 112 Introduction to Engineering II
Introduction to biomedical engineering analysis, design, and manufacturing processes. Ethics, regulatory factors, and biomedical engineering design tools (mechanical, electrical and computer tools) are introduced. Hands on experience is provided through a project in which the students design, assemble, program, and test biomedical devices.
