In Foundations of Human Molecular and Cellular Biology students will study clinically important aspects of cellular processes
contributing to complex human diseases. The course will be divided into four major topics including Genomics and Gene Expression,
Cellular Structure and Function, Signal Transduction, and the Cell Life Cycle. The course will conclude with several lectures
designed to integrate the course material with detailed analysis and discussion of specific complex diseases. Each lecture is
designed to introduce a clinical situation, present relevant molecular and mechanistic information related to the lecture topic,
and provide students with the environment to apply their knowledge of molecular and cellular biology to clinical problem solving.
An integrative approach to the molecular and cellular mechanisms of disease will equip students with the necessary knowledge and
insight to apply current advances in the basic sciences to clinical medicine.
This course will involve approximately 32 contact hours during Block 1 of the Fall semester. In the spirit of a truly integrative approach to the molecular biology of human disease the course will involve a team of basic scientists and clinicians. For more information, please see:
