Course Discription |
:
Exploration of the nano-structure of matter (i.e. atomic structures), atomic bonding, builidng up the picture to the micro-structure (i.e. molecules), molecular bonding, crystalline structure, then proceeding to the macro structure of matter. The course will be divided into two main categories; the first being natural biomaterials (ex. bone, muscles, wood, etc.) their structure, function, and structure-function relationship. The second part of the course will study engineering biomaterials (ex. metallic, ceramics, polymeric, composites, etc.) and their use in implant technology such as skeletal reconstructrion, various implants, and biocompatibility issues. |
