BioE 532: Advanced Biological Systems Analysis
Description Heading link
The purpose of this course is to introduce graduate students to the principles of mathematical and computational methods in bioengineering. The course is a core course requirement for all graduate students. We will cover experimental and mathematical techniques for the quantitative description, modeling, control, and design of realistic problems in bioengineering. Class projects may include topics such as computational analysis of medical images, whole body pharmacokinetic models, hemodynamics simulations, and medical image guided design of drug transport problems.
The course will provide a thorough introduction into mathematical modeling techniques. Open-ended project assignments will help graduate students develop skills to apply class content independently. The laboratory component will create opportunities for students to implement new mathematical skills in realistic research-level course projects. Publications of class projects will be encouraged.
