Voraussetzungen
Empfohlen, im Wortlaut
Basic knowledge in cell biology
Inhalte
• Basic organisation of tissues: Cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) • ECM: Molecular structure & function • Cell-ECM Interaction • Cell-Cell interactions • Cellular Development and Fate Decisions (Proliferation, migration, determination, differentiation, cell-cell & cell-matrix interaction, apoptosis) • Cells Sources for Tissue Engineering: stem cells, differentiated cells from adult tissues, problem of donor-recipient cell transfer • Wound healing as a Natural Model of "Tissue Engineering": Inflammation, tissue formation, tissue remodelling • Cell based therapies: Principles and Applications • 3D Cell Cultures Systems: Principles and Applications
Lernziele
• Explain and apply fundamental scientific principles as well as advanced, specialized knowledge in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. • Describe the basic structure of tissues and analyze interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix. • Explain key developmental processes in mammals and relate them to tissue engineering strategies. • Identify and explain the core components of tissue engineering, including cells, signaling molecules, biomaterials, bioreactors, and three-dimensional (3D) cell culture systems. • Distinguish between different cell-based therapies and evaluate their roles as therapeutic concepts in regenerative medicine. • Analyze and discuss 3D cell culture approaches and evaluate their relevance for tissue engineering, disease modeling, toxicology and pharmacology and translational research. • Develop independent ideas and concepts for solving scientific problems related to tissue engineering.
