GMED G620 - Molecular and Cellular Foundations of Medicine


Credits: 3

This instructional module vertically integrates the disciplines ofmolecular biology, genetics, and cell biology along with an introduction to biochemistry as the foundation of understanding the human body at the molecular and cellular level. Students will be introduced to cellular structure and its influence on cellular communication, organization and integration of cellular functions, utilization of biomolecules in metabolic pathways, and processes of cell division and transmission of genetic information. The goal of this module is an understanding of the biology and biological processes of healthy humans from the molecular to cellular scale, processes and patterns of inheritance, and the role of genomics in medicine.

Note: Restricted to medical students
