CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
60231	Lecture	GU	12:30PM -1:50PM	TR	305 Materials Science & Eng Bld	Sirk, S	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/16/18-05/02/18 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Stem Cell Bioengineering Section Info: Application of engineering approaches for the quantitative analysis of stem cell biology, including stem cell genetics and stem cell microenvironments. Design principles underlying stem cell-based therapies and diagnostics. Stem cell biomanufacturing.
60233	Lecture	PII	12:30PM -1:50PM	TR	225A Talbot Laboratory	Imoukhuede, P	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/16/18-05/02/18 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Systems Bioengineering Section Info: Systems Biology and Bioengineering are emerging fields that require new minds that are adept in integrating biology with mathematics and computation. In this course you will receive training in bimodal systems biology: (1) Translating experimental observations to mathematical representations. (2) Deterministic network model development, mathematical solution techniques, simulation, and prediction. These approaches will be presented in the context of tumor angiogenesis. Here students will examine the angiogenic signaling pathways, and apply systems biology and bioengineering approaches to design new therapeutics targeting tumor vasculature. **Pre-reqs: MCB 150 and one of the following courses: BIOE 201, CHBE 221, or TAM 210/212.
