Aim
An important part of medical imaging concerns high resolution information on the atomic, molecular and cellular level. A knowledge of the architecture of the cell and an understanding of the basic relationships between biological structure and function is one aim of this course.
Another aim is to give a picture of what environment an implant must be accepted into and an understanding of the origins of some biomaterials. Cells can produce biomaterial like hyaluronan acid, collagen and many others or form new tissue from stem cells.
After the course you should have:
-It is mostly a reading course with two computer practicals, home assignments and a project presented orally
-Book: Molecular Cell Biology, 8th ed, 2016, Eds Berk et al. Global Edition ISBN-16: 978-1-4641-8744-5
-Handouts and materials given out during the course
