Description:
The module Unconventional biomaterials shall extend students knowledge about biomaterials. It will allow learning about the structure of bioresorbable materials, polymer medicine carriers, bioglasses and biosensors, learning the silicones application in medicine. Owing to that students shall acquire broader knowledge of biomaterials.
Prerequisites:
It is required to achieve effects of education of physics, chemistry, crystallography, and biomaterials modules.
