Chemical Engineering - CH E

Introduction to fundamental principles underlying synthetic biology with an emphasis on mathematical modeling of gene regulation using ordinary differential equations and mass action kinetics. Students are introduced to foundational concepts in molecular and cellular engineering, synthetic biology, quantitative modeling of various genetic circuits, as well as cutting edge applications of innovative molecular biotechnologies such as cancer immunotherapy and cell-based diagnostics. Students will also learn to design and predict the functional outcomes of synthetic gene circuits and review primary literature in the field. Graduate students enrolled will be required to submit an additional project.

Prerequisites: Chemical Engineering 10, Chemical Engineering 107 or equivalent or consent of instructor.
