BME 4390

Bioreaction Kinetics: Biomedical & Pharmacological Perspectives

Course Description

Pre-Requisite(s): BME 2104 AND APMA 2130

We will learn to bridge the gap between the fields of bioengineering and the science of how drugs interact with biological systems, i.e., Pharmacology, including the principles of biochemical reaction kinetics and engineering; how such principles can help us describe, model, predict and modulate the outcome of biochemical reactions in cells and biological reactors, and apply these principles to the understanding of pharmacological phenomena.
