that the process of adhesionof cells from a liquid suspension onto solid substrates may be related to the free energy ofthe adhesion [2] (∆Gadh). ∆Gadh = γ cs − γ cl − γ sl (2)In Equation 2, the symbol γ represents the surface interfacial free energy and thesubscripts, c, s, and l refer to cell, solid, and liquid, respectively. Compare Equations 2and 1 – how are they similar? For net negative free energies (high γs), the conditions arefavorable for cellular adhesion, whereas, for a net positive free energy (low γs), theconditions are unfavorable (Figure 3).The cell-solid interfacial energy is dependent on the cell type and solid substrate, but itcan be calculated as [2] 2
) models.Suggested Course TextbooksThe authors are of the opinion that this course is better delivered in a team-taught manner, due tothe fact that most of the issues related to bioterrorism in buildings involve several topics orsubjects – HVAC controls, filtrations, chemical and biological agents and their dissemination,building design considerations, decontamination, risk management, economics etc.Consequently, recommending any particular course textbook(s) will be an arduous task just forthe very reasons that the course involves too many issues/topics which are sometimes unrelated,and hence make selecting any particular textbook(s) difficult. That notwithstanding, thefollowing course textbooks (not an exhausted list) can serve as a way forward: 1

further advantages of these courses a setup iscreated where synergy between the capstone and cornerstone courses are utilized. It might be assimple as having students share a coffee machine, but also by having capstone students coachingand mentoring cornerstone students or having cornerstone projects as a subproject of a largercapstone project. All these mechanisms creates an exchange of experiences and knowledgebetween the junior and the more senior students which has proved advantageous for the juniorstudents to better understand their future professional roles.References1.

During the process of developing anarticulation agreement, it is not unusual for the community college to ask for a number of corepre-engineering courses (e.g., calculus, physics, chemistry, Engineering Design) that thecommunity college student could use to transfer into the engineering (and computer science)program/s at the 4-year institution. These core courses are selected so as to reflect the
