Course Description

The continuous developments in genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics will help to drive the use of micro/nano sensor technologies for personalized medicine or companion medicine. This course aims to provide the necessary background knowledge for multi-disciplinary students on both sides of medical applications and engineering approaches. Both physical-based and bio-chemical-based micro-sensors will be covered in the lectures.

Course Objective

1

Prepare students for the multi-disciplinary natures of micro-sensors with physical & chemical fundamentals.

2

Design and fabrication processes of integrated sensor systems for clinical applications.

3

Critical assessments of the static and dynamic performance of biomedical sensors.

Course Requirement

  • Course Requirement:
    1. General background in Physics, Biology, and Engineering Mathematics.
    2. Reading assignments before each class and participate in active discussion.
    3. Homework assignment.
  • Student Workload (Expected weekly study hours before and/or after class): —
  • Office Hours: Tue 15:00–17:50
