Courses

Neuroscience foundations for engineers

BIOENG-310

This overview course bridges computational expertise with neuroscience fundamentals, aimed at fostering interdisciplinary communication and collaboration for engineering-based neuroscience programs.

Practical - Zenk Lab

BIO-625

You will learn to prepare single nuclei suspensions from organoid and use them to generate chromatin accessibility (ATAC) or CUT&Tag sequencing libraries to probe the epigenetic landscape during development. You will also learn how to perform basic analysis and compare between samples.

Single cell biology

BIOENG-420

The students are exposed to experimental and analytical approaches specific to single cell biology, with an emphasis on quantitative aspects.

Stem cells and organoids

BIO-447

This course introduces the fundamentals of stem cell biology, with a particular focus on the role of stem cells during development, tissue homeostasis/regeneration and disease, and the generation of organoids from stem cells
