Curricular Standards and Objectives
Main Objectives
Compare the relative size of nano objects compared to objects that they can see (macroscale). Differentiate between surface-area-to-volume ratios of different sized objects and explain it plays a role in the human body. Explain why properties of matter can change at the nanoscale. Explain what self-assembly is and how it is important in many biological processes Evaluate models and tools essential in understanding nanomedicine. Explore the types of disease and how they are passed on at the molecular level. Evaluate information and create a specific model of how disease could be treated through nanotechnology. |
