Course content
This class provides an introduction to the interactions between cells and the surfaces of biomaterials. Especially, this class try to deliver the comprehensive but compact introductory information addresses all the significant aspects of biomaterials science in a balanced way, providing a global vision with and appropriate balance between depth and broadness in a reasonable number of topics. Conceptual background materials and a broad overview of applications were both envisioned as being integral to this class. Key definitions, equations, and other concepts are concisely pointed out along the text, allowing students to quickly and easily identify the most important information.
The course covers: surface chemistry and physics of selected metals, polymers, and ceramics; surface characterization methodology; modification of biomaterials surfaces; quantitative assays of cell behavior in culture; biosensors and microarrays; bulk properties of implants; and acute and chronic response to implanted biomaterials.
Purpose of class
The goal of this class is to deliver the information of biomaterials and study the physical and biological principles that serve as the scientific basis for understanding the interactions of biological molecules and cells with biomaterials employed for the fabrication of permanent implantable prostheses and as matrices for tissue engineering.

・Study the general information and background of biomaterials.
・Emphasis on the molecular and cellular interactions between standardized biomaterials surfaces and model biological environments.
・Principles of tissue engineering.
・Critical characteristics of biomaterials surfaces and methods of analysis.
・Comparative analysis of permanent and biodegradable implants by reference to case studies.
