Biocompatibility and Cellular Overview (1 of 4)

This video, provided by the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Support (NACK) Center at Pennsylvania State University, is part one of a four-part lecture on the interactions between biological entities and products crafted on a nanoscale, with a focus on nanoparticles for drug delivery. In this part of the lecture, Terence Kuzma from Pennsylvania State University provides an overview of cellular interaction as a basis for later discussion of cellular applications in nanotechnology. Kuzma analyzes the makeup of a generic animal cell, discussing cell scale and size, DNA structure and assembly, and more.

The video runs 55:24 minutes in length. Also included are the presentation slides and an audio version of the lecture. Other parts of the lecture are available to view separately.
