Student led special topic courses which vary by semester

The focus for the course will be establishing a regulatory mindset for students to engage with the Food & Drug Administration, primarily the Center for Medical Devices and Radiological Health. The material covered throughout the semester is presented in a series of lectures, design prompts, exercises, workshops, and reviews. Students will develop their own project(s) and work as individuals and in small groups/teams. Prereq: BME 2000 and BME 2101

This course will provide students with a quantitative framework for identifying and addressing important biological questions at the molecular, cell, and tissue levels. The course will focus on the interplay between methods and logic, with an emphasis on the themes that emerge repeatedly in quantitative experiments.
