After completing the course students can explain the concept of the cell technology in the field of tissue engineering. Student can define the most common cell and tissue culture methods and understand the reasons to use differentiation factors in tissue engineering. Student can outline the basics of bioreactor design. In addition they can describe the special requirements in cell manipulation techniques. Students will learn the most common cell and tissu culture and differentiation methods in tissue engineering.
Students learn to compare cell manipulation techniques. Cell manipulation (bioreactors, growth factors, nutrition, genetic manipulation), cell material-interactions (scaffold/substrata, nutrition).
