| Course objective | It is a graduate-level course that will cover the fundamentals of nanosicence and the principles and practice of micro- and nano-fabrication techniques with a focus on applications in biomedical research. One of objectives of the course is also to facilitate a means through which biologists, chemists, physicists and engineers can communicate. At the same time, general definitions about micro- and nanofabrication and the state of the art approachs such as bioinspiration, biomimetic and DNA origami will be also explained. | |||||
