Quantitative Principles of Drug Design

Catalog description

An application of fundamental quantitative principles to biological problems across a wide range of scales. Through an engineering lens, we examine biology on the genetic, molecular, cellular, and population level. Using this information, we can begin to rationally engineer safe and effective biologics. Emphasis is placed on quantitative modeling in MATLAB/Python and immunotherapy design. Prerequisites: Pre-reqs for UG students ENM 2400 or Math 2400, BE 3090 , BE 3100 or by permission of the instructor. Recommended: Introduction to Coding Course for MATLAB or Python at the level of ENGR 1050
