ECE 5215 - Biomedical Microdevices

Institution:

University of Utah

Subject:

Electrical and Computer Engineering

Description:

Recent advances in large scale molecular biology have created the technological need for miniaturized instrumentation that can interact with macromolecules, cells, and tissue with high throughput and in many cases massively parallel formats. This course covers several applications of microfabricated devices to current problems in biology and medicine. The course material includes applications of miniaturization technologies for medical diagnostics and macromolecule, assays, drug discovery, cellular activity monitoring and growth, and tissue engineering. Basic engineering mathematical skills and willingness to learn and research subjects on biological phenomena and devices. A working knowledge of biology is very helpful but not required. Prerequisites: Full Major status in Electrical Engineering OR Computer Engineering
