  • BMED 6420: Biology and Engineering of the Extracellular Matrix

    4.00 Credits
    Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

    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

  • BMED 6970: Professional Project

    3.00 Credits
    Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

    Active participation in a semester-long project, under the supervision of a faculty adviser. A Professional Project often serves as a culminating experience for a Professional Master's program but, with departmental or school approval, can be used to fulfill other program requirements. With approval, students may register for more than one Professional Project. Professional Projects must result in documentation established by each department or school, but are not submitted to the Graduate School and are not archived in the library. Grades of A, B, C, or F are assigned by the faculty adviser at the end of the semester. If not completed on time, a formal Incomplete grade may be assigned by the faculty adviser, listing the work remaining to be completed and the time limit for completing this work.
