Biomanufacturing

Prerequisite: ENGT 3001.

An introduction to manufacturing processes, with examination of biomanufacturing processes and biofabrication, as well as the related state-of-the-art engineering technologies. Topics include: living (cells, tissues) and non-living (bio-supportive proteins, scaffolds) components for product development, biofabrication techniques (cell printing, patterning, assembling, 3D scaffold fabrication, cell- and tissue-on-chips for micro- and nano- fabrication), and biomanufacturing processes (pharmaceutical production by plant cell culture, agricultural cultivation for medicinal purposes, industrial fermentations, fuzzy control and neural networks in production).
