Course Description
Pre-Requisite(s):
BME 2104
How does a single fertilized egg grow and divide into every cell in the body, from branching neurons to beating cardiomyocytes and everything in between? Can we harness this knowledge to better understand disease, and to produce therapeutically relevant cell types, tissues, and organs? You will explore what controls stem cell differentiation using hands-on experiments, with emphasis on methods to engineer cell fate for regenerative medicine.
