Biomedical Engineering
| Massachusetts Institute of Technology Integrates Cancer Research in the Lab and Classroom with MathWorks Tools |
Update Link / Bad Link? |
| Description:
| MIT professor Dr. Alterovitz initiated and directed a new course, Bioinformatics and Proteomics: an Engineering Problem-Solving Based Approach, which was standardized on a set of MathWorks tools including MATLAB and the Bioinformatics Toolbox. This class, which paralleled his ongoing cancer research, gave students access to cutting edge research from both MIT and Harvard. Because the MATLAB programming language is easy to learn, students, biology majors and engineers alike, could focus more on research rather than programming.

| SPM: Statistical Parametric Mapping |
Update Link / Bad Link? |
The SPM software package is a suite of MATLAB functions implementing Statistical Parametric Mapping. It refers to the construction and assessment of spatially extended statistical processes used to test hypotheses about functional imaging data. The current release is designed for the analysis of fMRI, PET, SPECT, EEG and MEG.

| Statistical Thermodynamics of Biomolecular Systems |
Update Link / Bad Link? |
| Description:
| This course provides an introduction to the physical chemistry of biological systems. Topics include: connection of macroscopic thermodynamic properties to microscopic molecular properties using statistical mechanics, chemical potentials, equilibrium states, binding cooperativity, behavior of macromolecules in solution and at interfaces, and solvation. Example problems include protein structure, genomic analysis, single molecule biomechanics, and biomaterials. Computer simulation tools included.

| Mechanics of Growth |
Update Link / Bad Link? |
| Description:
| This course addresses the phenomenon of growth on a theoretical and computational level and applies the resulting theories to classical biomechanical problems like bone remodeling, hip replacement, wound healing, atherosclerosis or in stent restenosis. This course will illustrate how classical engineering concepts like continuum mechanics, thermodynamics or finite element modeling have to be rephrased in the context of growth.
