Introduction to Biological Engineering Design
20.020 · Biological Engineering · Undergraduate · Spring 2009
Dr. Natalie Kuldell, Prof. Andrew Endy
<p>This class is a project-based introduction to the engineering of synthetic biological systems. Throughout the term, students develop projects that are responsive to real-world problems of their choosing, and whose solutions depend on biological technologies. Lectures, discussions, and studio exercises will introduce (1) components and control of prokaryotic and eukaryotic behavior, (2) DNA synthesis, standards, and abstraction in biological engineering, and (3) issues of human practice, incl…
