Dr. Anderson. Pre-requisite: ENGPR 2410, ENGP 2430, ENGP 3120. Concentration on various engineering aspects of the human knee and the treatment of its common orthopaedic pathologies. Topics include histophysiology of wound healing, synovial joint anatomy and tissue biomechanics, knee biomechanics, osteochondral and ligamentous graft reconstruction, prosthetic ligaments, and knee arthroplasty with emphasis on the design issues involved and the integration of clinical practice.

Dr. Shevkoplyas. This graduate level course will focus on design and fabrication of biomedical microdevices for basic biomedical research and clinical diagnostics. Students will learn from examples in recent medical literature how to approach the design of biomedical devices. The course will emphasize two basic engineering concepts – simplicity and biomimetics. It often pays (figuratively and literally) to spend the time to engineer the simplest device with needed functionality, because simple devices are often more robust, inexpensive and user-friendly, and therefore are easier to commercialize. The biomimetic approach to engineering of devices could save a lot of effort simply because nature has already spent the time to try out nearly every possible design, and has often (but not always) arrived at the optimal solution. As an exercise in this course, students will be asked to propose a solution to a medical problem of their choice (from contemporary literature) and explain why they chose the specific design. A goal of this course will be to stimulate students to think creatively and to integrate their knowledge across a wide spectrum of subjects in BMEN curriculum for solving real problems related to human health. This course will specifically emphasize the development of point-of care diagnostic devices for remote, rural areas, developing world and other resource-poor settings.

3.00 Credits
Staff. Pre-requisite: CELL 1010, MATH 2240, BMEN 2600, BMEN 3400 or instructor approval. This course teaches the modeling of cell dynamics using biological kinetics. Students will learn to build kinetic mathematical models and apply quantitative analysis to cellular and biomolecular phenomena such as ligand-receptor binding, protein trafficking, signaling, cell growth and death, and cell migration.

3.00 Credits
This course is designed to introduce students to the physiological, behavioral, and cognitive changes associated with aging. In particular, we will focus on the effects of exercise on the aging human system. We will also discuss what it means to become older within a community, what can a person expect during the aging process, and what kind of control a person has over his/her aging body.
