learning outcome

After completing the course, the student should be able to understand the human biological system. They know and identify nanotechnology possibilities that can be used for the characterization of an unknown biomolecular system: a biomolecular recognition method. Students understand how nano-relevant instruments such as atomic force spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopes, and optical microscopes and other analytical methods such as Isothermal titration calorimetry, Dynamic light scattering, Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay can be applied in biomedicine. They have an overview of particle-based diagnostics and theranostics to understand how cells adhere to biomaterials and how to inhibit cell adhesion.

content
This course focuses on both applications of technologies in biomedicine and technologies themselves. The course will cover

  • fundamentals of human blood including different tissues, organs, cells/proteins, DNA/RNA/ polysaccharides and how an immune system works or forms diseases,
  • general aspects of biomolecular recognition, nanoparticle-based diagnostics, and theranostics,
  • cell adhesion on biomaterials and on nanostructured surfaces, and
  • one-day practice at iba, Heiligenstadt on blood sample, especilally, on the isolation of platelets and imaging them with confocal laser scanning microscopy.
