英文简介 To introduce BME students to the anatomy of mammalian cells: structure, organization and basic function of organelles, gene expression, intracellular signaling cascades, the cytoskeleton, the cell life cycle, and the extracellular matrix.   
To introduce students to the relationship between cell and molecular biology and bioengineering. To introduce concepts of how cells interact with their physical and mechanical environments and function as intricate machines that sense, process, and respond to stimuli.
To introduce students to analytical methods used in cell biology research.   
To acquaint students with issues related to biological variability.

At the end of the course, the students will understand:
1.  The structure and functional organization of cell organelles, especially membranes, the cytoskeleton,
extracellular matrix and the nucleus
2.  Quantitative aspects of cell signaling pathways
3.  Mechanisms regulating cell growth and death
4.  Basic regulatory mechanisms of gene expression
5.  Applications to biomedical engineering

100% Total             

Paper Reviews - Students are required to read the assigned articles (available on T-square).  Original scientific articles  will  be  discussed  on  assigned  days.    Students  are  required  to  write  1-page  reviews  of  the  original scientific articles following the format below.  These will be collected at the beginning of class within the first 5 minutes and randomly graded. Participation in the discussion will also be assessed and factored into the grade.

(2 pts)  1) Brief description of the point of the article -- why did the scientists believe this      
   work would be important?  
(1 pt)   2) What background motivated this study?  
(1 pt)   3) What are the health issues or diseases this work will help address?  
(2 pts)  4) Which do YOU think is the most important figure in this paper and why?  
(2 pts)  5) Describe at least one scientific problem with the paper.  This could be in the  
     experiments, methods, conclusions, etc. (EVERY paper has them!)  
(2 pts)  6) Describe a biomedical engineering approach that could enhance this study.
