Faculty First Year Seminars 197PSE2 - Bio/nanotechnology

this FFYS is to provide weekly topical discussions on different types of bio/nanotechnology. This includes how they are developing in the research community as well as how they are being incorporated into our daily lives (see Table). Examples include genetically-modified proteins (which might be in foods), the engineering of microbes to produce therapeutics or liquid fuels, and the development of novel drug delivery vehicles and biosensors. The idea behind the progression of topics is to gradually increase in complexity, starting with an understanding of the science and moving to public perception and policy.
