printer friendly pageBIOE 260: Tissue Engineering (ORTHO 260)
Principles of tissue engineering and design strategies for practical applications for tissue repair. Topics include tissue morphogenesis, stem cells, biomaterials, controlled drug and gene delivery, and paper discussions. Students will learn skills for lab research through interactive lectures, paper discussions and research proposal development. Students work in small teams to work on develop research proposal for authentic tissue engineering problems. Lab sessions will teach techniques for culturing cells in 3D, as well as fabricating and characterizing hydrogels as 3D cell niche.

BIOE 261: 3D Bioprinting Laboratory
3D bioprinting promises engineered tissues with precise structure, composition, and cellular architecture. This biofabrication technology lies at the interface of biology, bioengineering, materials science, and instrumentation. This course will teach some of the latest technologies through fundamental lectures and hands-on 3D bioprinting workshops. Student groups will embark on independent projects to innovate in any aspect or application of 3D bioprinting hardware, wetware, or software. Experience in tissue engineering (
BIOE260), instrumentation (
BIOE123), or biomaterials (
MATSCI 381) is helpful but not required.
