Prerequisites: BIOE120 and BIOE121; or Permission of the Fischell Department of Bioengineer Bioengineering

This course will overview the biology and physiology of the lung to provide a basis for design of therapies and medical devices for pulmonary applications. Specific topics to be covered include inhaled drug delivery, lung-on-a-chip disease models, and regenerative approaches for lung repair. Recent literature highlighting advances in pulmonary bioengineering will be discussed throughout the course.
