| DESCRIPTION | This course covers the principles, implementation and applications of signal processing methods in biological research and biomedical engineering. Through a series of case studies and projects, the course will provide opportunities to acquire practical knowledge and skills of data analysis. General concepts of signals and systems, and a brief tutorial of MATLAB will be introduced at the beginning. Then data acquisition, filtering, coding, feature extraction, statistical inference, pattern classification, and modeling will be covered with emphasis on applications in real-world data. This course also includes a topic about neural signal processing. |

| DESCRIPTION | This course offers an overview of chemical biology, including the key concepts and recent development in chemical methodologies and biological applications. Topics will cover a broad range of chemical tools and molecular methods including bioorthogonal chemistry, photochemistry, genetic code expansion, chemical probe and reporter, and to showcase how these interdisciplinary technologies enable new biological discoveries relevant to DNA, RNA, and protein, with diverse examples from epigenetics, microbiology, and drug discovery. Students will gain a whole picture of the concepts and technologies in the field of chemical biology and learn how chemical approaches can power fundamental research as well as clinical translation. Moreover, students will learn the guiding principles and practical considerations when develop and implement chemical biology approaches in their own research, with a series of workshop and case studies. |

| DESCRIPTION | This course explores the dynamic world of proteins and their critical roles in biological systems and clinical research. Participants will learn advanced methodologies for protein characterization and functional omics, encompassing both traditional techniques (e.g., protein separation, purification, and analysis of protein complexes in chemical biology) and cutting-edge omics strategies (e.g., high-throughput identification, quantification, and analysis of proteins and their post-translational modifications). Students will gain a robust understanding of the classical approaches in protein biochemistry, including isolation and functional analysis of proteins, and Modern omics technologies for system-wide profiling of proteins in biological and clinical contexts. The course also provides a framework for students to design and develop their own research projects, applying these tools to solve the challenges in neurobiology, biomedicine and clinical applications. |
