4.00 Credits
Presents structure-property relationships of implant materials including metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites, with an emphasis on mechanical and surface properties in the broader context of implant design. Biological performance of biomaterials, case studies of traditional implants-as well as emerging, tissue-engineered materials- are emphasized.When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
Introduction of mathematical and computational methods to model physiological systems in biomedical engineering that include examples drawn from thermal and therapeutic diffusion, biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system, and lumped parameter models of the cardiac cycle. Mathematical methods include partial differential equations and systems of ordinary differential equation. Computational methods include finite difference, finite element, and lumped parameter methods. Computational methods are programmed using commercial programming and finite element software. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisitites: MATH 2400, PHYS 1200, CSCI 1190. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to sensing and imaging methods using electromagnetic radiation, including hands-on experiments. Topics include physical principles of sensing/imaging, instrumentation and data acquisition strategies and computational methods for image formation and sensing. Emphasis is placed on imaging with visible light and near infrared spectrum, diffuse optical imaging and spectroscopy, x-ray imaging and computed tomography and radar. Application areas include medicine and biology, security and surveillance, environmental and chemical sensing, and buried or hidden objects. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Pre-requisites: PHYS 1200, MATH 2400. When Offered: Fall, every other year. Cross Listed: ECSE 2800 Credit Hours: 3

Theory and practice of biomedical measurements. An introduction to instruments and procedures for measurement of pressure, flow, bioelectrical potentials, biomechanical and biomaterial properties, using invasive and noninvasive techniques. Transducers studied include strain gauge, differential transformer, spectrometer, blood gas electrodes, bipotential electrodes, microscope with camera, mechanical testing machine, piezoelectric transducer (or sensor). Also studied are instruments for determination of material properties. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: BMED 2200, BMED 4500 or permission of instructor. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
3.00 Credits
Relationships between structure and properties of synthetic implant materials, including metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites. The emphasis is on mechanical, corrosion, and surface properties of materials. Detailed review of blood-material interactions. An introduction to biocompatibility with special emphasis on the interaction of biomaterials with cells and tissues in the context of implant surface design and tissue engineering. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: BMED 2100 may be taken concurrently. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
This course discusses state-of-the-art techniques in patterning biomolecules, biosensors, machining three-dimensional microstructures and building microfluidic devices (Lab-on-a-Chip). Seminal and current literature will be used to discuss topics in BioMEMs ranging from device fabrication to applications in cell biology and medicine. Students cannot get credit for both BMED 4410 and BMED 6410. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: Jr/Sr. Standing When Offered: Spring annually Credit Hours: 3
-
4.00 Credits
Comprehensive examination of cellular interactions with the extracellular matrix (ECM), as well as analysis of the structure and function of the ECM in a variety of tissues. Topics to be covered include: EMC proteins, cell-matrix interactions, ECM signaling, mechanics of the ECM, ECM pathology and recent advances in ECM research. There are no formal prerequisites, but students should have a rudimentary knowledge of cell biology and protein structure (readings to provide this can be requested from the instructor). When Offered: Spring term of even-numbered years. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
Applications of control theory and systems techniques to physiology. Emphasis is on entire systems and their interactions rather than isolated phenomena. Areas covered include cardiac, respiratory, renal, and gastrointestinal systems. Includes laboratory on the application of engineering techniques in the study of physiological systems. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: BIOL 4290 or equivalent. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
