Matrices, Organoids, and Microphysiological Systems
Explore current technologies and scientific literature seeking to construct human-relevant, in vitro systems representing tissues, organs, and disease physiologies as platforms for development of new therapies. Focus on how concepts in biomaterials, stem cell biology, microfluidics, additive manufacturing, and biosensing are integrated to create such platforms. Biomedical Engineering 382J (Topic: Matrices/Organs/Microphys Sys) and 382J (Topic 15) may not both be counted.
