課程大綱:
一、課程說明(Course Description)
The course is designed to provide the advanced students with knowledge and methods required for the design, fabrication and characterization of biosensors and bioelectronics for biochemical, biomedical, clinical and environmental applications. The fundamentals of molecular recognition, biomolecular immobilization, transduction mechanism will be covered in the discussion of various biosensors. In addition, the basic electronic biosignal conditioning circuits and processing methods will be introduced. The integration of bioelectronics with biosensors and bioarrays will be discussed to build lab-on-a-chip systems.
