This course is intended to be an introduction to many core Chemical Engineering principles, within the context of mammalian cell biology and human physiology. We will cover biological topics of cell division, DNA, receptor-ligand binding, matrix protein assembly, tissue engineering, and cell motility, using a quantitative engineering perspective. Within this biological framework, students will learn the basic principles of mass and energy balances, thermodynamics, kinetics, and transport. (Gen.Ed. BS)
