Course description and aims
Recently, engineering has been vigorously applied for researches on biological and medical sciences. In this situation, material science plays a pivotal role as an interface between engineering and biological/medical sciences. This lecture introduces the basic knowledge and noticeable technologies for biological/medical applications of materials. The goal of this lecture is to understand the biological/medical sciences from the standpoint of material scientists/engineers, and to explore the possibility of biomedical materials.
Student learning outcomes
The goal is to understand the interdisciplinary field of nanobiotechnology, which combines engineering, biology, pharmacy, and medicine, for the development of new materials and therapies. This entails gaining a comprehensive understanding of "materials" based on chemical principles and the ability to accurately explain them. Furthermore, from the perspective of materials engineering, the aim is to comprehend biology and medicine and employ this knowledge to design and develop innovative medical materials. Additionally, the goal is to contemplate the current state and potential future advancements in medical materials, fostering the exploration of new ideas and research avenues.
