MULTIDISCIPLINARY GRADUATE CURRICULUM ON INTEGRATIVE BIOINTERFACIAL ENGINEERING

摘要

Biointerfaces arise at contacts between biologically derived systems-living and nonliving-and synthetic systems,typically comprised of synthetically designed materials.Many new technologies in cell-based diagnostics and therapies,tissue engineering,biomolecular therapies,and biosensors are critically dependent on advances in bio-interactive surfaces.Rapid advances have taken place in identifying new biological molecules and in the initial design of diverse materials capable of biomimicry and scale-specific bio-recognition.
