Description
This course continues the bioengineering introductory sequence. Calculus and chemistry should be taken concurrently. Diffusion and molecular transport, electrochemical gradients, heat and mass transport, and related topics are used to explain the basic principles in cellular, organ, and systemic physiology. The same tools are applied to design of biomedical devices such as the artificial kidney and meuroprosthetic devices.
