Course Goals / Objectives:
Describe nanotechnology-dependent strategies to delimit activities of semi-biological therapeutics and diagnostics in time and space (uptake, targeting, triggering) in vivo
Describe opportunities for use of nanotechnology-based therapeutics and diagnostics to treat/detect disease states and physiological processes that are provided by pathophysiology of selected disease states
Describe physiological processes and systems relevant to nanotherapeutics and diagnostics and mechanisms by which they influence fate, distribution and function of nanodevice therapeutics and diagnostics in vivo
Synthesize the above information into a proposal to build a previously undescribed therapeutic/diagnostic nanodevice for in vivo or ex vivo use
