Integrating creative thinking into biomaterials education: A first year bioengineering seminar module to teach how to design musculoskelatal bioengineering systems for regenerative purposes.

摘要

In this study a classroom module was designed and implemented to create awareness to Musculoskeletal Regenerative Engineering with a special focus on tendon stretch bioreactor design. Students were encouraged to;1.Ask questions to critically analyze current strategies.2.Learn about the structure function relationships when designing a Musculoskeletal Bioengineering System.3.Create Tendon Bioreactor prototypes each of them unique per group.4.Enjoy while doing all of the above.
