-
2.00 Credits
The second half of a two-semester sequence that simulates the work of a product development team to gain experience in technical entrepreneurship. The students complete the development of a working prototype and refine their marketing and business plan based on experience gained during the development phase. Lectures are presented on relevant entrepreneurial topics.
-
3.00 Credits
Applications of biomaterials in different tissue and organ systems. Relationship between physical and chemical structure of materials and biological system response are discussed as well as choosing, fabricating, and modifying materials for specific biomedical applications.
-
3.00 Credits
Principles and design of microcomputer-based biomedical instruments, analog and digital signal conversion, microcomputer hardware and software design, algorithm development for medical applications, medical signal processing with microcomputers, software safety in life support systems, and current applications are discussed.
-
2.00 Credits
Laboratory course for BME 540. Design of medical instruments integrated with microcomputers and telemetry devices. Corequisite: BME 540.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to geometrical optics, light sources, detectors, and fiber optics with an emphasis on engineering aspects and medical applications. Fiber-optic delivery systems for medical applications, optics of the eye and visual instruments, and optical instruments used in medicine (microscopes, endoscopes, ophthalmic instruments) are discussed. Hands-on sessions in the laboratory are included.
-
3.00 Credits
Review of geometrical optics, fiber optics, wave optics, laser physics, and technology. Medical laser systems, optical properties of tissue, light propagation in tissue, laser-tissue interactions, and surgical applications of lasers are also covered. Hands-on sessions in the laboratory are included.
-
3.00 Credits
Major concepts include neural signaling and communication from the single neuron to system of neural ensembles and the role of neural computation in engineering applications. Theory and principles of information processing in the brain are presented. Experimental data and computer simulations are used to provide real examples for students experimentation.
-
3.00 Credits
Fundamentals of transport phenomena in biological systems including diffusios, osmosis, convection, electrophoresis, and transport with binding. Applications to cell electrophysiology and drug delivery. Introduction to physiological fluid flow in tissues.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to cellular and tissue engineering. Current therapeutic approaches for lost/damaged tissue or organ function, tissue engineering strategies to replace/repair tissue or function: infusion of cells, production and delivery of tissue-inducing substances, cells placed on or within biomaterial scaffolds, examples of tissue engineering applications: skin, heart muscle, blood vessels, and blood.
-
3.00 Credits
Course topics include quantitative description, analysis, and processing of biophysical and physiological (cardiovascular, neural, sensory, muscular, respiratory and other) signals using computers. Survey of time-frequency representations, correlation, convolution, coherence, filtering, averaging, and classification is also included.
