Course Level

Graduate

Course Title

Model-Based Design of Clinical Therapies

Course Description

Students will learn how to translate a clinically relevant physical system into a governing equation with boundary conditions, and how to use this mathematical model to test and improve the design of medical devices and therapies. Problems of mass, heat, and momentum transport; the interaction of electromagnetic fields with materials (including tissue); and the mechanics of fluids and solids will be explored.
