The lecture will give a comprehensive introduction into the mutual dependencies of physicochemical properties and function of biological materials. The focus is on the hierarchical construction and the resulting material properties both on the molecular and the macroscopic levels, respectively. At the same time applications in form of biosensors or synthetic fibres will be discussed. The lecture consists of the following chapters: Building elements of biological materials, self-assembly, biological membranes, muscle, tendon, bone, wood and silk.
