Biological Engineering II: Instrumentation and Measurement: Course Description
Through this free OpenCourseWare from MIT, students will learn about the major pieces of electronic, mechanical and optical apparatus used in quantitative analysis of molecules, cells and tissues. Students will study the proper use of this laboratory equipment and develop an understanding of its underlying physical principles, with an emphasis on building and design. They will learn to apply noise analysis, probability and statistics to experimental data. Course materials also cover the use optical Fourier techniques. To be best prepared for this undergraduate course, students should have background in working with differential equations. Maxim Shusteff and MIT Professors Scott Manalis and Peter So lead this program in biological engineering. Special software is required.
Lists of readings and lab topics, homework assignments, video tutorials and other resources are available for free online. If you're interested in taking this course, visit the Biological Engineering II: Instrumentation and Measurement course page.
