Courses (1-4 of 4)

1. [Illinois] MCB 529 BRH Biological Rhythms in Health and Disease

   Courses | 30 Dec 2013 | Contributor(s):: Martha U. Gillette

   Our major research thrusts are to understand: 1) signals that engage the circadian clockwork in the brain, 2) sub-cellular micro-environments that shape neuronal dendrites in development and repair, and 3) emergent behaviors of integrated neuronal systems.

2. [Illinois] MCB 493 Neural Systems Modeling

   Courses | 29 Oct 2013 | Contributor(s):: Thomas J. Anastasio

   The purpose of this independent study is to give students hands-on experience in using computers to model neural systems. A neural system is a system of interconnected neural elements, or units. Students will use existing computer programs which will simulate real neural systems. They will...

3. [Illinois] ECE 416: Biosensors

   Courses | 07 Feb 2013 | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham

     Learn the underlying engineering principles used to detect small molecules, DNA, proteins, and cells in the context of applications in diagnostic testing, pharmaceutical research, and environmental monitoring. Biosensor approaches including electrochemistry, fluorescence,...

4. [Illinois] PHYS466 2013: Atomic Scale Simulations

   Courses | 06 Feb 2013 | Contributor(s):: David M. Ceperley

   Application of Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics techniques in primarily classical simulations to understand and predict properties of microscopic systems in materials science, physics, biology, and chemistry. Numerical algorithms, connections between simulation results and real properties of...
