General description and relevant information The course objective is to provide an overview of the fundamental concepts of modern nanotechnology and biotechnology and discuss the risks and benefits of its application in such important areas as health, food, environment and agriculture or forensic science. Nanobiotechnology is the genesis of important new insights into how biological systems work, and likewise, nanobiotechnology will lead to the design of device types and micro nanofabricated brand new systems. Emphasis will be placed on the fusion of nanofabrication and biosystems and current and future trends in nanobiotechnology.
