3. Course Objectives
Modern research in life science has proved that a multidisciplinary approach is required to understand complicated biological systems and accelerate applications in human therapeutics, chemicals, and genetically encoded materials.
In this course, the bioengineering faculty team at the CE department will discuss 3-4 core techniques and a wide variety of current research in biotechnology. These include applications in biotechnology such as genome engineering, biomolecule engineering, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, enzyme engineering, bioprocess, bio-based chemicals, computational biology and protein engineering.
