Summary

Main aim of the course is to introduce, in designing of modern wearable and implantable devices, the new concept of co-design three system' layers: Bio for Specificity, Nano for Sensitivity, and CMOS for autonomy. Recent examples of devices realised for m-Health are presented and deeply discussed.

2. Bio for Probes/Targets interactions with DNA and Antibodies

3. Bio for Probes/Targets interactions with Oxidases and Cytochromes

4. Bio for Detection principles: Dna, Antobodies, Enzimes

5. Bio for Detection principles: Redox Reactions

6. Nano for Probes immobilization: Methods and Mechanisms

7. Nano for Probes layer quality: SPR, SEM, and AFM

8. Nano for Memristive Biosensors

9. Nano to prevent the Electron Transfer
