| Purpose of the course | Doctoral students that take this course will broaden their scope in bioengineering, with focus on cell sheet technology (CST) and its applications, and to gain knowledge and insight on the research and development pipeline from idea to approved clinical applicactions. |
| Intended learning outcomes | After the completed course, the participants can describe the theoretical basis of cell sheet technology, describe the practical technology involved and can critically evaluate different approaches for applying cell sheet technology in clinical problems. The students can describe the process of research and development leading to approved clinical applications in different clinical problems and settings. |
| Contents of the course | The biological challenges in regenerative medicine. The basic chemical and physiological principles employed in cell sheet technology. The processes for the production and preparation of cell sheets for clinical use. Different types of cells used in the production of cell sheets. Examples of clinical applications in trials (such as articular cartilage, bone, periodontal ligaments, corneas, blood vessels and the myocardium). |
| Teaching and learning activities | The learning forms consist of expert lectures, discussions, seminars, technology demonstrations, study and critical analysis of articles, and student presentations. |
| Compulsory elements | Participation in the discussions and demonstrations are obligatory and cannot be compensated for. |
| Examination | The learning outcomes will be examined individually with a written quiz, with formative assessment of active participation and the assessment of the contribution to critical analysis of articles. |
| Literature and other teaching material | Recent original and review articles will be recommended. | Course responsible |
