Course description


The
goal

of
n
ano
-
biotechnology is to integrate the nano
-
scale techn
ology and materials

w
ith

biological sciences
including biotechnology
for

the
develop
ment of
new bio
materials and analytical toolkits
. Those technologies will have a great impact
on

medicine and drug discovery as well as better understanding of life science.
This course
will deal with the
underlying
principle
s

and
recent
advan
ce
s

in
n
ano
biotechnology
.
Other interesting
topics

will
be additionally included.
