Participation in this course will give students a basic understanding of how certain problems in biology and medicine can benefit from the miniaturization of devices. Students will gain background in the fabrication, applications, and current research activities in the area of bioMEMS. Special emphasis will be placed on applications of bioMEMS and lab-on-chip devices in tissue engineering, cell biology, biotechnology, and implantable systems. Further, a small part of this course will focus on the emerging field of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS), again with applications in biology, pharmacy, and medicine. Students will also get a picture of how the field has advanced through the years.
