Dear Students,
This semester, Prof. Matsagar (馬誠) from the Graduate School of Biotechnology and Bioengineering is offering a brand-new course entitled Biomedical Materials (Course Code: Bl529A).
Why you should consider this course:
- 🧬 Master the Science Behind Medical Innovations: Learn how natural and synthetic biomaterials are designed for medical devices, implants, tissue engineering, and diagnostics the foundation of modern healthcare technology.
- 🔬 Understand Structure-Property Relationships: Discover how material structure influences mechanical behavior, degradation, and biological response a core competency in biomedical engineering.
- 🧫 Explore Advanced Biomaterials: Dive into hydrogels, nanomaterials, smart materials, and bio-functional surfaces that are shaping the future of regenerative medicine and precision therapy.
- 💊 Connect Materials to Real Medical Applications: Study drug delivery systems, biosensors, implantable devices, and how materials translate from lab research to real clinical use.
- ⚖️ Think Beyond the Lab: Learn about regulatory approval, safety evaluation, ethical considerations, and translational challenges in bringing biomaterials to market.
- 🚀 Develop Problem-Solving Skills: By the end of the course, you'll be able to evaluate biomedical materials based on performance, safety, and clinical requirements and propose practical material-based solutions to real biomedical engineering challenges.
Grading:
❌ No traditional midterm or final exams
✅ Only practical projects, reports, and presentations
Your creativity and active participation matter far more than memorizing textbook pages.
