Description
As a continuation of BIOEN 6170, the course begins with the hierarchical organization of biomolecules into materials, complex devices, and machines, leading to specialized cell types and the molecular basis of specialized function. A major theme of the course is to examine the potential for engineering biomolecular devices, or the interactions between them to modify entire cellular pathways and function.
