BIOEN 6100 - Biomedical Technology for Applied Research

Research projects now often involve expertise and resources beyond individual laboratories. To introduce students to the wide variety of cutting-edge technologies and equipment available on campus for biomedical research, the survey course includes presentations by selected University Health Science Core Facility directors on the services their facilities offer, followed by hands-on interactive demonstrations of how the techniques are applied to achieve research goals. Students will have the opportunity to interact with the Core directors whom are experts in their respective fields and visit the respective core facilities. Students will be required to demonstrate an understanding of the technologies described in written and oral formats.
