EN 540.475 - Macromolecules at Interface

Institution:

Johns Hopkins University

Subject:

Description:

By instructor's permission. This course involves integrated lecture/discussion and laboratory components to review and participate in current and emerging topics involving macromolecules at interfaces. Lectures and discussions review how fundamentals of macromolecular and interfacial science are connected to emerging problems in nano- and bio- technologies. Authentic inquiry activities in the laboratory are connected to diverse scientific and technological fundamental topics. Research and journal article presentations provide a context for laboratory activities with respect to current topics in a number of emerging research applications involving colloidal particles. Research design and strategy is discussed as a process distinct from existing elective course activities and guided inquiry activities in standard undergraduate laboratory courses. Applications include (but are not limited to) photonic crystals, reconfigurable antennas, drug delivery, biomolecular interactions, nanoparticles in the environment, and tissue engineering.
