- Offers a broad overview of the field of biomaterials (materials used in medical devices that interact with living tissues).
- Begins with introductory lectures on biomaterials and their translation from the laboratory to the medical marketplace and progresses to discussions of important biomaterials terminology and concepts.
- Basic materials science lectures then emphasize material structure-property-function-testing relationships.
- Concludes with introductions to topics in the field such as biomaterials-tissue interactions, tissue engineering, regulatory requirements, etc.
- Considers principles of device design as related to the selection and application of biomaterials throughout this course.
