Biotransport

Catalog description

Biomedical Engineers develop new solutions to challenges in medicine by applying engineering principles to the intersection of physical, chemical, and biological phenomena. In this course, students will learn about transport phenomena in biological systems. Momentum and mass transport in biomedical engineering will be covered, including applications to artificial organs, drug delivery, and tissue engineering. Fluid biomechanics and thermodynamics will be introduced. Students will learn and apply pharmacokinetic modeling.
