教学大纲

Nanotechnology is used to control and manipulate nanometer-sized matter with nanometer precision. This can be atoms, molecules, or larger biological structures such as DNA or living cells. This free online course explores the potential of nanotechnology in medical applications, to create new devices that can be used to diagnose a disease or monitor a medical treatment. Explore the use and implications of nanotechnology in new medical applications In the first week of the course, we provide an introduction to nanotechnology. In each of the three following weeks, we explore a different medical application: how cantilever technology can be used to detect a disease from your breath; how lab-on-a-chip technology can be used for blood analysis at home; and how bladder cancer can be detected in a urine test at a very early stage. For each innovative application of nanotechnology in medicine we will explain: how the devices work and how nanotechnology plays a role; what technologies are used to fabricate micron and nanometer-sized devices in the laboratories and clean rooms at the University of Twente; and what the ethical and societal implications of these new technologies are. Learn with the world’s top nanotechnology research institute The course has been developed by researchers from two research institutes at the University of Twente: MESA+, one of the world’s leading nanotechnology research institutes; and MIRA, which combines fundamental and applied technology research with clinical practice.

平台

FutureLearn est une plate-forme d'apprentissage proposant des formations en ligne ouvertes à tous (MOOC)

Fondée en Décembre 2012, la société est entièrement détenue par l'Open University à Milton Keynes, en Angleterre.

Elle est la 1ère plateforme offrant des MOOC au Royaume-Uni, avec à son actif plus d'une cinquantaine d'universités partenaires provenant du Royaume Uni mais aussi du reste du monde.

FutureLearn se différencie également par des partenariats avec des entités non-universitaires comme le British Museum, le British Council, la British Library et la national Film and Television School.
