This course is an introduction to core Biomedical Engineering principles, as
well as an overview of critical facets of mammalian cell biology and human physiology important to practicing Biomedical Engineers. The course covers 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 learn the basic principles of mass and energy balances, as well as a brief introduction to thermodynamics and transport processes. (Gen. Ed. BS)
