Independent investigation of a specific topic in modern bioengineering research under the direction of a faculty member.
-
3.00 Credits
This is the second module of a full year course. The goal is to develop a firm foundation for and a fundamental knowledge of the field of Bioengineering. The course is split into 2 semesters each comprised of several different modules. BIOE 562 (Principles of Bioengineering II) includes systems and signaling, micro-fluidics, nano-optics, miniature optics, microscopy, molecular biology, stem cells, and high through-put screens assays. This course must be taken by all first year graduate students. Both BIOE 561 and 562 must be taken during the same academic year.

3.00 Credits
This course will explore how bioengineering techniques and principles are applied to understand and model sensory systems, with a focus on the auditory, vestibular, and visual systems. The interaction between the electrical, mechanical and optical aspects of these systems, and ways to modulate these interactions, will be explored. The course will also cover the design of current auditory, visual and somato-sensory neuroprosthetics (i.e. cochlear- implants, retinal implants and brain-machine interfaces), as well as emerging technologies for neural stimulation.
-
3.00 Credits
Modern simulation techniques for classical atomistic systems. Review of statistical mechanical systems. Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulation techniques. Extensions of the basic methods to various ensembles. Applications to simulations of large molecules such as proteins. Advanced techniques for simulation of complex systems, including constraint satisfaction, cluster moves, biased sampling, and random energy models.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of cell-cell interactions and the role of the extracellular matrix in the structure and function of normal and pathological tissues. Includes strategies to regenerate metabolic organs and repair structural tissues, as well as cell-based therapies to deliver proteins and other therapeutic drugs, with emphasis on issues related to cell and tissue transplantation such as substrate properties, angiogenesis, growth stimulation, cell differentiation, and immunoprotection.
-
1.50 Credits
The major trends and innovations driving the creation of new products in large established companies and venture-capital- backed startup companies are discussed. This pragmatic, experienced-based course describes the venture capital process, formation, and capitalization of high-tech companies, sources of technologies, role of tech transfer at universities and medical schools, startup operational issues, role of VCs and board members, execution time frames, liquidity process, IPOs and mergers, and payout prospects for founders and inventors.
-
3.00 Credits
Students will work through a series of patient cases that present foundational oncology concepts for graduate bioengineering and biomedical science students interested in cancer-related translational research. The class will use collaborative problem-based learning to evaluate risk factors, epidemiology, prevention, screening and detection, clinical signs and symptoms, staging and grading, management, and clinical trials for a variety of cancers. Emerging research findings and their clinical and engineering applications will be emphasized. Students will review and collaboratively discuss each case, decide on relevant learning issues, gather information, present findings for further review and discussion, and submit a case-specific written assignment. Using the same model, each student will then develop and lead his/her own patient case for class study.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to concepts necessary for application of systems - Biology Approaches to Human Diseases. Topics include transcriptional and metabolic design principles, introduction to various regulatory network motifs in diseases and potential treatments using embryonic stem cells. Analysis of complex diseases using engineering concepts such as optimality, nonequilibrium thermodynamics, multiscale analysis and spatiotemporal transport.
-
1.50 Credits
Professional development topics relevant to academic careers including applying for faculty positions, interviewing , negotiating offers, building a lab, obtaining funding and balancing professional obligations. Designed for graduate students planning academic careers in research-intensive bioengineering departments.
