This course is taught by several professors who have distinct expertise in the field of biomaterials. From my perspective, I focus on the application of membranes in the biomedical field, with an emphasis on the applications that our team works on, such as blood separation membranes or membranes for wound dressings. The course is offered to both undergraduate and graduate students. 

I teach 6 weeks each semester (each session lasts 3 h), and the topics of my lectures are as follows:

Fall semester

1. Membranes in the biomedical field

2. Membranes in the biomedical field 2 (focus on our activity)

3. Introduction to membrane formation by NIPS

4. Antibiofouling membranes

5. PS-co-PEGMA additive for antibiofouling membranes

6. Examination

Spring semester

1. Zwitterionic copolymers for in-situ modified antibiofouling membranes 

2. Anti-bacterial membranes

3. Molecular design parameters influencing antifouling performances 

4. Membrane additives withstanding steam-sterilization

5. Writing a paper about the preparation/application of membranes

6. Examination
