Point-of-Care Molecular Diagnostics
Introduction to the principles, tools, and technologies required to develop and implement nucleic acid-based molecular diagnostics. Discuss amplification methods, primer design, sample prep, and detection. Focus on global and rural health, accessibility, and real-world applications. Biomedical Engineering 367D and 377T (Topic: Point-of-Care Mol Diagnostics) may not both be counted. Three lecture hours a week for one semester.
