BIOE 5450 — Stem Cell Engineering

4 semester hoursGraduateLectureusually offered: falltypical days: T/FBostonTraditional

Covers engineering principles and approaches in stem cell research and their application in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Emphasizes recent technology and engineering tools used to understand and manipulate stem cells. Topics covered include embryonic and adult stem cell biology fundamentals; quantitative modeling of stem cell signaling; genetic/biochemical/biophysical/biomechanical/biomaterials tools to control stem cell fate and differentiation; epigenetic editing and cellular reprogramming; engineering biomimetic and bioreactor environments to develop stem-cell-based therapies; and various applications in tissue development, diseases, and regeneration.
